Rockies' Matt Carasiti: Contract selected from Albuquerque

Colorado selected the contract of Carasiti from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

Carasiti will have a chance to appear in an MLB game for the first time since he was a member of the Mariners in 2019. The right-hander will be a middle-innings option for the Rockies while he's with the club, and Fernando Abad has been designated for assignment to make room for Carasiti on both the 40-man and active roster.
