Rockies DFA Veteran, Call Up Hughes | Colorado Rockies News
Description
The Rockies cut ties with veteran pitcher John Brebbia after a disastrous stint, sending him down just days after bringing him back to stabilize their shaky bullpen. With a brutal ERA over 10 in limited innings, the team opted for a fresh start — calling up 24-year-old prospect Gabriel Hughes, making his MLB debut. Hughes, recovering from Tommy John surgery and a former first-round pick, has shown promise in Triple-A with a 4.63 ERA. For a rebuilding Rockies squad, this move offers hope and a chance to evaluate a young arm before committing more innings to a declining veteran.
