Contreras signed with the Rakuten Golden Eagles of Nippon Professional Baseball on Thursday. Contreras spent the 2025 season split between the Orioles and Rockies organizations, working both as a starter and reliever. He was released by Colorado on Wednesday, likely to allow him to sign the deal overseas.
-
The Rockies released Contreras on Wednesday. It's the first official transaction by new president of baseball operations Paul DePodesta. Contreras was a late-season waiver claim of the Rockies, allowing eight runs over 8.1 innings before his season ended in late September due to a hand contusion.
-
The Rockies placed Contreras on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to a right hand contusion. Contreras' move to the IL means he'll be shut down for the rest of the season, though he should be ready for spring training. He was claimed off waivers by the Rockies on Sept. 2 after being DFA'd by the Orioles in late August. Across four bullpen appearances for Colorado, Contreras allowed eight runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out four across 8.1 innings.
-
The Rockies claimed Contreras off waivers from the Orioles on Tuesday. Contreras doesn't have minor-league options remaining, so he'll be added to the Rockies' 28-man active roster and will serve as a starter or long reliever. Before the Orioles designated him for assignment, Contreras tossed 4.1 scoreless innings as a bulk reliever last Wednesday against the Red Sox in what marked his 2025 MLB debut.
-
The Orioles designated Contreras for assignment Thursday. Contreras fared well in a bulk-relief appearance during Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Red Sox, striking out a pair over 4.1 scoreless innings. However, he will now lose his spot on the roster as the Orioles clear room in the bullpen for waiver pickup Shawn Dubin. If Contreras clears waivers, he would have the ability to elect free agency.
