Josh Outman is expected to play winter ball in the Dominican Republic. |
Outman has been limited to just 109 innings this season between the majors and the minors, so he wants to build up his workload. The 28-year-old southpaw has an ugly 8.59 ERA and 36/17 K/BB ratio in 36 2/3 innings over seven starts and 16 relief appearances with the Rockies this year. He'll likely remain in the bullpen in 2013. |

Mon Jul 2 2012 | 23:40 | Outman struggles again |
Josh Outman put up the latest poor outing for the Rockies Monday, as he allowed two runs on two hits and five walks over just three innings in a loss to the Cardinals. |
The five free passes tied a career high. Outman's move into the rotation hasn't gone well to this point, as he holds an 8.89 ERA over seven outings. Assuming he remains among the starting five, he'll try for better results this weekend against the Nats. |

Thu Jun 28 2012 | 19:34 | Josh Outman gives up five runs to Nationals |
Josh Outman was pulled after surrendering five runs in three innings Thursday against the Nationals. |
It looks like Outman could be the second member of the Rockies' four-man rotation to lose his spot since the team made the switch nine days ago. His ERA stands at 9.32 now, so don't be surprised if Drew Pomeranz takes his spot next week. |

Josh Outman was pounded for five runs in three innings by the Diamondbacks on Wednesday night. |
Outman gave the Rockies 3 1/3 scoreless innings in his first start Friday after moving to the rotation from the pen, but he couldn't keep it going tonight, as the red-hot Paul Goldschmidt contributed to his early demise. He'll probably get one more start next week to show what he can do, but his rotation spot is far from secure. |

Josh Outman will be limited to 50 pitches in his start against the Dodgers Friday. |

Thu May 31 2012 | 08:48 | Outman taking Moyer's spot in Rox rotation |
Josh Outman will get a crack at filling Jamie Moyer's spot in the Rockies' starting rotation. |
"[Outman is] stretched out to go a little bit, and then he'll be piggy-backed with somebody," Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. "Slowly but surely, we'll stretch him out to where he gets the point where he can determine his own fate from one start to the next." The 27-year-old left-hander owns a decent 3.92 career ERA but can go on being ignored in most fantasy formats. |

Sat Mar 31 2012 | 01:42 | Outman makes Rockies' Opening Day roster |
Josh Outman has made the Rockies' Opening Day roster as a reliever. |
Outman, who was acquired from the Athletics in the Seth Smith deal, had a 3.70 ERA and 35/23 K/BB ratio over 58 1/3 innings last season. The 27-year-old southpaw has always had good stuff, so he could be a useful arm out of the bullpen. It will be interesting to see whether the Rockies also decide to carry fellow left-hander Matt Reynolds. |
