The Rockies have released right-hander Manny Corpas, MLB.com’s Thomas Harding reports (Twitter link). Corpas requested the move and is looking for an opportunity with another team.
Corpas, 31, signed a new minor league deal with the Rockies last winter and posted a 5.29 ERA, 7.9 K/9 and 4.2 K/BB rate over 47 2/3 innings (one start and 27 relief outings) with Triple-A Colorado Springs. He has yet to see any big league action this season after getting regular work as a reliever for the Rockies and Cubs since he debuted in the Majors in 2006.
