Ty Blach News
The Colorado Rockies outrighted pitchers Ty Blach, Karl Kauffmann, and Matt Koch off of their 40-man roster on Thursday after all three went unclaimed on waivers. Blach and Koch can both elect to become free agents, while Kauffmann will remain in the organization on the outside of the 40-man looking in. The left-handed Blach is the longest-tenured big-leaguer of the bunch but has struggled mightily following a decent run with the Giants from 2017-18. He posted a 5.54 ERA across 20 appearances (13 starts) with the Rockies in 2023. Kauffmann struggled to an 8.23 ERA across 35 innings between the rotation and bullpen with the Rockies this season, while the right-handed Koch had a 5.12 ERA across 39 appearances, all but one of which came out of the bullpen.
Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Ty Blach (wrist) has thrown a bullpen session and his wrist has responded well. Blach will throw a simulated game on Friday after originally sustaining the injury in a collision with the Padres' Jurickson Profar on June 10. The hope is that his next appearances will be at Triple-A Albuquerque on a minor league rehab assignment. The 31-year-old left-hander is eligible to return from the injured list on June 26, but it remains to be seen if he'll return by that date. Before going down with his wrist injury, Blach had allowed 23 earned runs on 38 hits while walking nine and striking out 17 with one save in 31 1/3 innings over 15 outings (one start) for the Rockies.
Colorado Rockies left-hander Ty Blach will be on the Opening Day roster, according to Nick Groke of The Athletic. The news comes after the announcement that Ryan Rolison (shoulder) will start the season on the 60-day injured list. Blach will be used as a long man out of the bullpen but could see some spot starts if an injury pops up. The 31-year-old has had a decent spring, posting a 4.00 ERA and 1.11 WHIP with six strikeouts in nine innings. He hasn't appeared in a big-league game since 2019 with the Baltimore Orioles when he pitched to the tune of a 12.00 ERA over 27 innings and five starts. Fantasy managers can pay little attention to Blach this season unless he can find a spot in the rotation and somehow find success that he's never found before.
