Rockies' Jake Bird: Activated, optioned to Triple-A
The Colorado Rockies reinstated Jacob 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.
