The Rockies recalled Bird from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday. The move corresponds with Colorado placing right-hander Tyler Kinley on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation. Bird has appeared in 32 major-league games out of the Rockies' bullpen this season and has registered a 4.95 ERA and 1.79 WHIP across 36.1 innings.

The transaction frees a roster spot for the return of Antonio Senzatela (elbow), who is back from the 60-day injured list to make his season debut Monday against the Diamondbacks. Bird holds a 4.95 ERA and ugly 28:25 K:BB over 36.1 frames with the big club in 2024.

The Rockies recalled Bird from Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports. Bird will take Nick Mears' spot on the active roster Saturday after Mears was traded to Milwaukee for a pair of minor-league pitchers. Bird has appeared in 22 games for the Rockies this season, posting a 6.26 ERA and 16:18 K:BB across 23 innings.

The Rockies reinstated Bird (groin) from the 15-day injured list Wednesday and optioned him to Triple-A Albuquerque. Bird has been on the injured list since June 26 due to a right groin strain. He's since thrown one rehab inning in Triple-A, surrendering three hits but allowing none to score, and he'll remain with the Isotopes now that he's fully recovered. The 28-year-old righty owns a 6.26 ERA and 1.87 WHIP in 23 MLB innings, so he'll likely need to show consistent success in the minors before he's invited back into the Rockies' bullpen.

Bird (groin) was sent to Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday to begin a rehab assignment. Bird has been out since late June with a groin strain, but he resumed throwing a few days ago and is now ready to test things out in a game setting. The reliever shouldn't need many rehab appearances since he hasn't missed much time, but with the All-Star break looming the Rockies could choose to hold him out until the second half.
