    Rockies selected the contract of RHP John Brebbia from Triple-A Albuquerque.

    Brebbia joins Colorado’s relief mix after spending a couple weeks in the minors where he reeled off nine scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts and zero walks for Triple-A Albuquerque. The 36-year-old journeyman reliever has made 376 career appearances between five different organizations since 2017.
Pages heads to IL, no longer fantasy relevant
Eric Samulski gives the latest on Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages as he was placed on IL and will no longer be relevant for fantasy managers as he is expected to be out most of the remainder of the regular season.

    The 36-year-old held a 1.62 ERA in 16 2/3 innings at Triple-A Albuquerque and made three rough appearances in the bigs with the Rockies earlier this year. He exercised his opt out and jumped over to the Red Sox.
  • COL Relief Pitcher #60
    Brebbia elected free agency last weekend rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Albuquerque, but after exploring his options on the open market, the veteran right-hander decided that his best opportunity was to remain with the Rockies. The 36-year-old has compiled a 10.38 ERA and 1.62 WHIP over 4 1/3 frames in his three outings with the big league club this season.
  • FA Relief Pitcher #60
    The 36-year-old righty was designated for assignment by the Rockies earlier in the week and opted to explore the open market rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Albuquerque. Brebbia has posted a 10.38 ERA and 1.62 WHIP over 4 1/3 innings in three appearances with the Rockies this season.
  • COL Relief Pitcher #60
    It seems highly unlikely Brebbia will attract any interest on waivers after allowing five runs over 4 1/3 innings for the Rockies after being brought up back on June 22. The 36-year-old veteran will presumably elect free agency instead of accepting an outright assignment.
  • COL Relief Pitcher #60
    The 35-year-old right-hander was granted his release by the Twins last week after posting a 6.20 ERA over 20 1/3 innings at Triple-A St. Paul. He has a history of being a quality bullpen arm, which should be enough to earn him a shot with the Rockies at some point this summer, but his days of fantasy relevancy are long gone.
  • FA Relief Pitcher #60
    Brebbia had an opt-out clause that he activated after not being added to the 40-man roster. The 35-year-old has a 6.20 ERA in 20 1/2 innings at Triple-A this season.
  • MIN Relief Pitcher #60
    There are few teams with a clearer path to relief innings than the rebuilding Twins. Brebbia heads to Triple-A St. Paul as emergency middle relief depth after failing to crack Colorado’s season-opening bullpen earlier this spring. The 35-year-old veteran posted an inflated 7.71 ERA across 22 appearances between the Tigers and Braves last year but has made 376 relief appearances in the big leagues since 2017.
  • COL Relief Pitcher #83
    Bellozo and Brebbia were in Rockies camp this spring as non-roster invitees attempting to make the club’s season-opening relief mix. Bellozo will presumably head to Triple-A Albuquerque to open the year while Brebbia has been cut loose to pursue opportunities elsewhere.
  • COL Relief Pitcher #60
    Brebbia bolsters Colorado’s bullpen depth heading into next spring after making 22 relief appearances between the Tigers and Braves last season, finishing with a bloated 7.71 ERA across 23 1/3 innings of work. The 35-year-old journeyman has made 376 appearances in the big leagues dating back to 2017.
  • BOS Relief Pitcher #60
    Brebbia won’t be eligible for the postseason, if the Red Sox qualify, but he provides them with some experienced relief depth for the home stretch. The 35-year-old veteran has been hit hard with a bloated 7.71 ERA across 23 1/3 innings of work this season between the Tigers and Braves. He’s made 376 relief appearances in the big leagues dating back to 2017.

    Carson Whisenhunt was removed from Monday’s start against the Reds with left elbow pain.

    That doesn’t sound great. Whisnehunt appeared to be in some real discomfort when he left the game with a trainer rather abruptly with two outs in the third inning. He finished with three strikeouts over 2 2/3 scoreless frames. It certainly seems like he’s headed to the injured list.

    Corey Seager finished 3-for-4 with two doubles, three RBI and a walk Monday in the Rangers’ 11-2 drubbing of the White Sox.

    Seager has multiple hits in seven of his last eight games, raising his average from .198 to .232. That’s still 57 points less than his career average of .289, but it looks like he’ll keep gaining on it.

    Kumar Rocker yielded two runs in 5 2/3 innings and struck out eight in defeating the White Sox on Monday.

    Rocker should have given up a two-run homer to Andrew Benintendi in the first, but Brandon Nimmo made a terrific catch in right to bring it back. Rocker did give up a two-run homer to Tristan Peters the following inning, but he locked in after that in winning for the first time in five starts this month. It’s the second time this year that he’s struck out eight, and he’s now 5-10 with a 4.41 ERA overall. Rocker figures to make his next start Sunday in Milwaukee.

    José Urquidy surrendered five runs in three innings Monday in a loss to the Rangers.

    Urquidy was coming off his best outing since Tommy John last Wednesday against the Cubs, but nothing much went right tonight. The first inning saw him throw 38 pitches, the highest total of his career, and give up two runs. In all, he threw 93 pitches to get nine outs, walking four and plunking two in the process. The White Sox have Thursday off, so they don’t need to start both Erick Fedde and Urquidy this weekend. Based on tonight, Fedde might be the better bet to face the Twins.

    Wyatt Langford went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer and a walk Monday against the White Sox.

    Langford’s homer came with a 9-2 lead in the ninth and led to the White Sox pulling Trevor Richards and finishing the game with a position player. It was his 15th homer in 80 games this season. He’s batting .253/.321/.462 for a .783 OPS that is just ahead of his .775 mark from his sophomore season.

    Colson Montgomery struck out three times and popped out once in his four at-bats Monday against the Rangers.

    Montgomery is 0-for-13 with nine strikeouts the last three days, and he’s hitting just .188/.254/.313 in 33 games since the break. His strikeout rate is currently sitting at a dreadful 34 percent, which is up from 29 percent in 71 games as a rookie last year. It’s not a good sign for the future.

    Carson Whisenhunt left Monday’s start against the Reds with a trainer.

    Whisenhunt appeared to be dealing with some sort of arm issue and left after tossing 2 2/3 scoreless innings. He struck out three and only issued one walk. He was staked to an early five-run lead, but wound up departing after just 47 pitches. There should be an update on his status after the contest.

    Pete Fairbanks was removed from Monday’s game against the Red Sox with nerve irritation in his right hand.

    It’s been a recurring issue for Fairbanks, who dealt with a similar issue that required a trip to the injured list back in May. He’ll be reevaluated prior to Tuesday’s game before a decision on his next steps is made. The 32-year-old stopper was lifted from Monday’s appearance against the Red Sox after issuing a leadoff walk in the ninth inning of a tie ballgame. It would most likely be Calvin Faucher taking over as Miami’s primary closer in his absence. He’s worthy of a speculative roster spot in deeper mixed leagues.

    Daylen Lile went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer, five RBI and one stole base on Monday, powering the Nationals to a 13-3 blowout win over the Rockies.

    Lile capped Washington’s unexpected 13-run offensive explosion with a three-run blast in the eighth inning. It was his 16th round-tripper of the season. Amazingly, the Nationals didn’t have a hit through four innings in this one, but still managed to put double-digit runs on the board. Lile has put together an outstanding all-around fantasy campaign, delivering top-30 range value among fantasy outfielders, hitting .246 with 66 runs scored, 16 homers, 71 RBI and 13 steals across 544 plate appearances.
