Yohan Flande: Elects free agency
Yohan Flande refused his outright assignment to Triple-A Albuquerque and elected free agency.The lefty was bumped from the 40-man roster over the weekend, and instead of playing out the rest of the season as depth in the minors, Flande has decided to seek his fortunes elsewhere. Flande has averaged just over five strikeouts per nine innings in parts of three seasons at the major league level and his six-year track record at Triple-A leaves a lot to be desired.

Rockies' Yohan Flande: Designated for assignment Saturday
Yohan Flande was designated for assignment Saturday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.Jake McGee's return from the disabled list meant that the Colorado Rockies needed to clear a roster spot, and Flande's recent performance put him on the chopping block. After a clean outing against the Diamondbacks last weekend, things fell apart for Flande on Tuesday against the Blue Jays when he gave up a staggering five runs over just 2.2 innings of work. He'll now be subject to waivers and could benefit from joining a club that does not call Coors Field its home park.

Rockies' Yohan Flande: Could be No. 5 starter to begin season
Yohan Flande could be the No. 5 starter to begin the season due to the injury to Jon Gray (abdomen), Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.Other candidates for the last rotation spot include right-handers David Hale and Christian Bergman, in addition to left-hander Chris Rusin (finger), although Rusin will miss the beginning of the season with an injury as well. Colorado has also not ruled out the possibility of using a four-man rotation at the onset of the season given that they have two off days in the first week. Flande was not originally considered a viable option for the rotation when he signed with the Colorado Rockies in February, but he has been impressive during spring training, posting a 14:1 K/BB ratio in 10 innings of work. This solid showing could vault him into the final rotation spot until Gray returns.

Rockies pitcher Yohan Flande won't make another start in 2015
Colorado Rockies pitcher Yohan Flande (knee) will not make another start this season, Nick Groke of The Denver Post reports. The Rockies haven't ruled out the possibility of Flande returning this season, but it will have to come out of the bullpen, as manager Walt Weiss has already set his rotation for the final week. Because the bruised knee has kept Flande out since Sept. 19, the lefty won't have enough time to get stretched back out for a starting role before the season ends.

Rockies pitcher Yohan Flande may return to action next week
Colorado Rockies pitcher Yohan Flande (knee) might pitch at some point next week, Nick Groke of The Denver Post reports. After announcing Wednesday that rookie Jon Gray (manager's decision) and Jorge De La Rosa (Achilles) would be shut down for the season, Rockies manager Walt Weiss set his rotation for the weekend series against the Dodgers, with Flande not included among the scheduled starters. Flande, who was in line to toe the rubber Friday, will be replaced by David Hale in the outing. The 29-year-old is still recovering from a knee bruise he sustained in a Sept. 19 start, but has shown improvement of late and could be cleared to throw again next week, though it's unclear if he would be available to start or simply as a bullpen option.
