Fri Jan 2620:21Rockies Sign John Curtiss To Minors Deal
The Colorado Rockies signed free-agent reliever John Curtiss to a minor-league deal with an invitation to big-league spring training on Thursday, according to a source. Curtiss is expected to be ready for the start of the 2024 season after having arthroscopic surgery on his right elbow last August. Before his injury, the 30-year-old right-hander allowed 10 earned runs on 17 hits (three home runs) while walking eight and striking out 16 in 19 2/3 innings over 15 appearances out of the bullpen for the New York Mets. He will open the year as minor-league relief depth for Colorado after posting a 3.81 ERA (3.98 FIP), 1.23 WHIP, two saves and 103 strikeouts in 106 1/3 innings over 91 appearances (five starts) in six big-league seasons with six different teams.

Wed Apr 6 202218:24John Curtiss Signs With Mets
The New York Mets have signed relief pitcher John Curtiss (forearm) to a major league deal. He is set to make $770,000 this season with a $775,000 team option for next season. The right-hander tore his ulnar collateral ligament last fall and underwent Tommy John surgery afterwards. He won't be pitching in 2022. Over 86.2 innings in the majors, the 29-year-old has a 3.63 ERA and a 1.22 WHIP. We'll see how he progresses in his rehabilitation and if he can become a meaningful part of the Mets' bullpen in 2023.

Tue Nov 30 202122:04Daniel Vogelbach, John Curtiss Non-Tendered By Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Daniel Vogelbach and reliever John Curtiss were non-tendered by the team on Tuesday after Milwaukee reached one-year deals with first baseman Rowdy Tellez, utility man Jace Peterson and reliever Jandel Gustave. Vogelbach and Curtiss are now free agents. With Tellez the preferred left-handed-hitting power option at first base, Vogelbach was expendable. Curtiss will miss all of the 2022 season after having Tommy John surgery in September. He was acquired in a trade with the Miami Marlins at the trade deadline and made only six appearances with the Brew Crew. Vogelbach hit .219 with nine home runs and 24 RBI in 93 games for Milwaukee.

Wed Aug 11 202118:17John Curtiss Placed On Injured List
The Milwaukee Brewers placed right-handed relief pitcher John Curtiss (elbow) on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday. Per a tweet from the team, Curtiss has a torn UCL in his right elbow. It's unfortunate news as the reliever was enjoying a quality season out of the bullpen. In 44.1 innings this year, the right-hander had pitched to a 3.45 ERA, a 3.80 FIP, 44 strikeouts, and 12 walks. The 28-year-old looked like a potential high-leverage option for Milwaukee down the stretch after the team acquired him from the Miami Marlins at the trade deadline. However, he'll head to the injured list after just six appearances for his new team. If you're looking for a replacement on the Brewers' roster for Curtiss in deeper leagues where holds are part of the scoring, Brent Suter, Brad Boxberger, and Jake Cousins are three names to consider.

Fri Jul 30 202118:45Brewers add relievers Norris and Curtiss in trades
MILWAUKEE (AP) — The NL Central-leading Milwaukee Brewers made two more moves Friday to boost their roster for a playoff push, acquiring relievers John Curtiss from the Miami Marlins and Daniel Norris from the Detroit Tigers. Milwaukee sent minor league catcher Payton Henry to Miami and minor league pitcher Reese Olson to Detroit. Both moves were completed Friday, two days after the Brewers added All-Star third baseman Eduardo Escobar in a trade with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Curtiss and Norris boost the depth of a bullpen headed by All-Star closer Josh Hader and 2020 NL Rookie of the Year Devin Williams. “We added to our depth, to our choices and created some insurance for the big innings, the leverage innings there,” Brewers manager Craig Counsell said. “We feel like with the group we have to attack the last two months, we’ll have guys step up. There’s enough good arms there, enough talented arms there that no matter what happens, we’ll be in a good spot.” Curtiss, 28, is 3-1 with a 2.48... [More]
Fri Jul 30 202117:46John Curtiss Traded To Milwaukee Brewers
The Miami Marlins on Friday traded relief pitcher John Curtiss to the Milwaukee Brewers for minor league catcher Payton Henry, MLB Network insider Jon Heyman reported. The 28-year-old right-hander has been solid this season, posting a 2.72 ERA and 1.08 WHIP with 40 strikeouts through 40 innings pitched. Curtiss previously wasn't a good pickup in holds leagues because of how the Marlins utilized him, however it's likely the Brewers will turn to him in save situations down the stretch.

Milwaukee sent minor league catcher Payton Henry to Miami and minor league pitcher Reese Olson to Detroit.

Norris has struck out 40 batters in 36 2/3 innings. Left-handed hitters are batting just .200 against him. Olson, 22, was 5-4 with a 4.30 ERA in 14 starts this season... [More]

Thu Jun 10 202100:25Tapia helps lead Rockies to rare road win vs Marlins
MIAMI (AP) — Raimel Tapia hit two doubles, singled and scored twice, and the Colorado Rockies earned a rare road victory, beating the Miami Marlins 4-3 on Wednesday night. Charlie Blackmon had two hits and an RBI for the Rockies, who are a major league-worst 5-23 on the road — compared to 20-14 at Coors field. Tapia has eight doubles in June after he hit four over the first two months of the season. Winning pitcher Austin Gomber (5-5) allowed one run in five innings. The left-hander was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the sixth after he scattered five hits and struck out eight on 84 pitches. “I was in the strike zone with all four pitches,” Gomber said. “I thought I had better control than command — got into some long at bats.” Colorado manager Bud Black opted for the pinch hitter because the Rockies had runners at second and third when Gomber’s spot came up, and Connor Joe came through with an RBI groundout. “Austin had one inning in him, we had a fresh bullpen and we thought that was the...

Black became the third Colorado manager to reach the milestone, following Clint Hurdle and Don Baylor. Rockies reliever Mychal Givens inherited two runners in the seventh and retired Jésus Aguilar on a drive to deep right for the third out. Givens pitched a scoreless eighth and Daniel Bard got his eighth save in 11 opportunities despite a... [More]
Wed May 19 202102:48Turnbull gets MLB's 5th no-hitter, Tigers beat Mariners 5-0
SEATTLE (AP) — Spencer Turnbull pitched the fifth no-hitter in the majors this season, sending the Detroit Tigers to a 5-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night. Turnbull, who led the big leagues with 17 losses two years ago, had never gone more than seven innings in any of his previous 49 starts over three seasons. The five no-hitters through May 18 match the 1917 season for the most in baseball history by that date. Turnbull’s no-hitter was the eighth in Tigers history and their first since Justin Verlander’s in Toronto on May 7, 2011. The 28-year-old right-hander got a great defensive play from third baseman Jeimer Candelario in the seventh inning and then struck out Mitch Haniger in the ninth to end it. Turnbull (3-2) struck out nine and walked two. Turnbull threw 117 pitches, 77 for strikes. Haniger was the only batter to hit the ball hard enough to threaten a base hit.

Wed May 19 202100:18Hunter gets key hit as Mets beat Braves 4-3
ATLANTA (AP) — The New York Mets got homers from Jonathan Villar and Tomás Nido, an unlikely hit from Tommy Hunter and strong performances by a string of relievers to beat the Atlanta Braves 4-3 Tuesday night. Villar hit a two-run shot in the third inning, and Nido won it for the Mets in the ninth with a tiebreaking drive into the left-field seats off struggling Braves closer Will Smith (0-4). One night after being struck in the face by a 95 mph fastball, Kevin Pillar brought New York’s lineup card to home plate before the game, a gesture that brought a huge sigh of relief to both teams. With his face swollen and badly bruised, Pillar still managed a smile as he shook hands with the four umpires and Braves coach Walt Weiss, who gave him a warm pat on the shoulder. Austin Riley and Freddie Freeman homered for Atlanta. Marcell Ozuna tied it for the Braves with a two-out, broken-bat single in the eighth off Jeurys Familia (2-0).

Wed Apr 28 202102:42Guerrero's 3 homers, 7 RBIs lead Blue Jays over Nats 9-5
DUNEDIN, Fla. (AP) — Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit three home runs, including a grand slam and solo shot off Washington ace Max Scherzer, and had seven RBIs as the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Nationals 9-5 on Tuesday night. Guerrero’s slam in the third put the Blue Jays ahead 4-3 and ended Scherzer’s scoreless streak at 19 innings. Guerrero made it 7-3 with his drive in the fifth and added a two-run, seventh-inning shot off Kyle Finnegan to complete his first three-homer game. Scherzer (1-2) joined Ivan Nova as the only pitchers to have allowed a homer to both Guerrero Jr. and his father, Hall of Famer Vladimir Guerrero. Scherzer allowed seven runs — five earned — and eight hits over five innings. Tommy Milone (1-0) was the winner. RAYS 4, ATHLETICS 3 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
