Rockies signed RHP Nelvis Ochoa to a minor league contract.
The 21-year-old hurler spent his first two professional seasons in the Rockies’ organization before he was plucked by the Orioles in the minor league portion of the Rule-5 draft prior to the 2024 season. Ochoa went on to post a 4.71 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and a 24/5 K/BB ratio over 21 innings for the Orioles’ Rookie League club. The Rockies remain intrigued by his potential and think that he can blossom into a real asset out of their bullpen in the coming years.
