PHOENIX — Rockies closer Adam Ottavino was placed on the 15-day disabled list Monday afternoon due to right triceps inflammation. The Rockies recalled right-hander Jorge Rondon from AAA.
Ottavino, 29, is 1-0 with three saves. He has made 10 appearances, allowing three hits and no runs in 101/3 innings.
Rondon has one major league appearance, a one-inning stint for the St. Louis Cardinals at Los Angeles (NL) on June 29, 2014. The Rockies claimed the 27-year-old Venezuela native off waivers on Nov. 3, 2014. This year he has allowed two hits and one run in 62/3 innings over five games at Albuquerque.
