Rockies' Joshua Fuentes: Retreats to minors

The Rockies optioned Fuentes to Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday.

The Rockies will swap Fuentes off the active roster for another righty-hitting corner-infield type in Colton Welker, who was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move. Fuentes appeared in four games during his short stint with the big club, going 1-for-8 with an RBI.
