Joe Beimel wants to return to Colorado Rockies
By
Left-handed relief pitcher Joe Beimel wants to return to the Colorado Rockies, according to The Denver Post’s Troy E. Renck.
“The Rockies are my first choice. I definitely want to be back,” Beimel said. “But after the last two offseasons, it’s hard to know what to expect.”
Renck says the emergence of Matt Reynolds and the rise of Minor Leaguer Rex Brothers may prevent Beimel from returning.
Beimel, 33, was 1-2 with a 3.40 ERA in 71 appearances for the Rockies last season. He agreed to a Minor League with the Rockies in late March and was called up in mid-April.
