Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports that Anthony Molina has made the Rockies’ Opening Day roster.
The 22-year-old hurler was plucked from the Rays with the third pick of December’s Rule 5 draft. While he worked almost exclusively as a starter in the minor leagues, he’ll work out of the Rockies’ bullpen — at least initially. He must remain on their active roster (or the injured list) for the duration of the season or be offered back to the Rays. Molina appeared in eight games during Cactus League play, posting a 4.76 ERA and a 1.41 WHIP across 11 1/3 innings.
