Yonathan Daza signed with the Tecolotes de los Dos Laredos of the independent Mexican League.

Daza underwent left shoulder surgery last June and was a long shot to find an opportunity this spring with a major league club. The 29-year-old contact-oriented outfielder will aim to rebuild his long-term value south of the border in 2023.

Rockeis designated OF Yonathan Daza for assignment.

With Brenton Doyle’s emergence and Randal Grichuk’s return, Daza was a victim of the numbers game. He can play all three outfield positions and has a strong arm, so he should draw some interest on waivers. The 29-year-old has hit .270/.304/.351 over 80 plate appearances this season.

Yonathan Daza came off the bench in a second straight game Sunday, but he didn’t get an at-bat against the Diamondbacks.

Daza hasn’t gotten a start in a week, but at this point, it’s more because the Rockies want to give other players a chance than because of the hand contusion he suffered on an HBP. He’s likely to be a reserve for the foreseeable future.

Yonathan Daza (hand) remained out of the Rockies’ lineup for Wednesday’s series finale against the Guardians.

It was prospect Brenton Doyle getting the call in Daza’s place for the third straight contest. The 29-year-old outfielder isn’t expected to require a trip to the injured list, but it’s fair to wonder if the Rockies aren’t better off just rolling with Doyle in an everyday role moving forward.

Yonathan Daza (hand) is absent from the Rockies’ lineup for Monday’s series opener against the Guardians.

No real shock here after Daza was hit by a pitch on the left hand during Sunday’s series finale against the Phillies. It’ll be prospect Brenton Doyle getting the nod in center field on Monday evening in his absence. The good news here is that he’s not expected to require a trip to the injured list.

Yonathan Daza was removed from Sunday’s game against the Phillies after being hit by a pitch on the left hand.

X-rays came back negative, but Daza is expected to miss a couple games until the pain and swelling subside after being hit by a 96.5 mph fastball on the left hand. It’ll be prospect Brenton Doyle coming up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday to give Colorado some extra outfield depth.

Yonathan Daza finished 0-for-3 as the Rockies’ No. 7 hitter on Sunday.

Daza got to lead off in the team’s first three games, but he was dropped in the order with Jurickson Profar debuting today. It should be a full-time thing, and it’s probably for the best. He wound up 3-for-17 in the Rockies’ first series of the year.
