Colorado Rockies Designate Michael Lorenzen for Assignment

The Colorado Rockies have officially designated starting pitcher Michael Lorenzen for assignment. This decision comes after a difficult campaign for the right-hander, who struggled to find consistency on the mound.

Throughout the current season, Lorenzen has posted a 3-11 record with a 7. 08 ERA.

The team management opted to make this roster move as they look to reorganize their pitching rotation. In a corresponding move, the organization has recalled pitcher Shook from their Triple-A affiliate.

Lorenzen will now wait to see if he is claimed by another club or if he clears waivers. The Rockies are currently evaluating their options for the remainder of the season as they aim to improve their overall performance.
