Colorado Rockies grabbed Tyler Kinley off waivers from the Miami Marlins on Monday. Joe Harvey was designated for assignment by the Rockies in order to make room on the roster.
As a member of the Marlins, Kinley compiled a 3-1 record and 3.65 earned run average in 52 appearances. Kinley had a 1.72 ERA in 14 games with a.082 batting average, a 0.70 WHIP, and seven walks in 15.2 innings in Triple-A.
With 36 walks in 49.1 innings, he compiled a 1.60 WHIP in his MLB career.
Kinley has a 5.22 ERA and a 1.69 WHIP in 60.1 innings pitched across 65 games in the Major Leagues throughout his professional career.
On the other hand, Bridich expressed confidence in Kinley’s power (a fastball in the mid-90s) and said that the metrics don’t tell the whole picture of what he can contribute to the Rockies.
Putting together a baseball roster is a never-ending task, especially for the Rockies, who are notoriously frugal. It’s the Rockies’ hope that the modest steps they’re taking now will pay off in the long run.
