The Colorado Rockies place Brian Fuentes on the DL
The Rockies have placed closer Brian Fuentes on the 15-day disabled list with a strained lower back. Fuentes has pitched in 40 games this season and he has a 0-4 record with 20 saves, a 4.06 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP. Fuentes has thrown 37.2 innings this season for the Rockies and he has allowed 33 hits, walked 11 and whiffed 31. Manny Corpas has replaced Fuentes as the stopper on the Rockies and he’s done a good job so far in that role.
