The Rockies have signed to a minor league contract, as per the left-handers . Shreve was released from his previous minors deal with the Yankees just last Thursday, and he has now quickly landed with the ninth different big league organization of his 15-year pro career. Shreve has seen action with seven of those teams at the Major League Ray Fosse Jersey level, with 174 2/3 of his 356 career big league innings coming in two earlier stints with the Yankees. Minors deals with the Rangers and Yankees in 2024 didnt lead to any time in the majors for the 34-year-old, so Shreve will look to crack the Rockies roster and officially appear in a game to lock in what would be an 11th MLB campaign. For such a journeymans resume, Shreve has some solid results in the form of a career 3.97 ERA, 25.3% strikeout rate, and 10.8% walk rate. His most recent two seasons have been quite shaky, however, as Shreve had a 6.49 ERA in 26 1/3 frames with the Mets in 2022 and then a 4.63 ERA in 44 2/3 combined innings with the Tigers and Reds last year. A combined 3.64 SIERA over the 2022-23 seasons perhaps paints a better view of Shreves performance, as an uncharacteristically high homer rate in 2022 particularly hurt his numbers. Shreve has looked sharp in his time at Triple-A this year, posting a 1.89 ERA in 33 1/3 total innings for the Rangers and Yankees top affiliates. His ability to pitch that well in the Pacific Coast League (with Triple-A Sugar Land) provides some hope that he can keep it up in another hitter-friendly environment in Albuquerque. It might not be long before Shreve is back in the majors, as the Rockies woeful bullpen needs all the help it can get, and the club doesnt have a single left-hander in its relief corps.
