Colorado Rockies: More roster moves as Scott Oberg is optioned

Before today’s game with the San Diego Padres, the Colorado Rockies announced that they optioned right-handed reliever Scott Oberg to Triple-A Albuquerque.

Taking his place in the bullpen and on the 25-man roster is right-hander Brooks Pounders. Pounders was not on the Rockies 40-man roster so, for him to get on the 40-man roster, the Rockies designated right-handed pitcher Zach Jemiola for assignment.

#Rockies announced today that they have selected the contract of RHP Brooks Pounders from Triple-A Albuquerque and have optioned RHP Scott Oberg to Triple-A. Additionally, RHP Zach Jemiola has been designated for assignment.
