Battenfield signed a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Wednesday. Battenfield was cut by the Mets toward the end of spring training and will now find work as organizational depth for the Rockies. The 26-year-old righty turned in a 5.19 ERA and 1.33 WHIP across 34,2 innings last season with the Guardians, and he'll likely need to show signs of improvement before being considered for a spot on Colorado's pitching staff.

The Mets released Battenfield on Sunday. Battenfield attended big-league camp and made one Grapefruit League appearance for the Mets on Feb. 28 but was reassigned to the minors at some point thereafter. The Mets didn't see a fit for Battenfield on their Triple-A pitching staff, so he'll get the chance to explore his options elsewhere. Battenfield made seven appearances (six starts) at the big-league level for Cleveland in 2023, logging a 5.19 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 27:12 K:BB across 34.2 innings.
