Rockies' Santiago Casilla: Signs with Rockies
Santiago Casilla inked a minor-league contract with Colorado on Thursday, Robert Murray of The Athletic reports.Casilla was recently released by the Athletics after making 26 appearances with the club in 2018. During those outings, he logged a 3.16 ERA and 1.21 WHIP while accumulating a subpar 22:20 K:BB across 31.1 innings of relief. The 37-year-old will provide extra depth within the Colorado Rockies' system at the Triple-A level.

Athletics' Santiago Casilla: Designated for assignment
Santiago Casilla was designated for assignment Saturday.On the surface, the move is something of a surprise, as Casilla had a solid 3.16 ERA in 31.1 innings so far this season. His underlying numbers were poor, however, with a 16.7 percent strikeout rate and a 15.2 percent walk rate, so his low ERA seems primarily attributable to a .209 BABIP. Joey Wendelken's contract was selected in a corresponding move.

Athletics' Santiago Casilla: Effective since returning from DL
Santiago Casilla, who fired a scoreless inning in which he recorded two strikeouts in an extra-innings win over the Angels on Sunday, has logged 3.2 scoreless frames across three outings since returning from the disabled list with a shoulder injury.Casilla has yet to issue a walk through that trio of appearances as well, always an encouraging sign for a pitcher with as many control issues as he typically exhibits. The 37-year-old has made significant improvements in both his ERA (2.84) and WHIP (1.07) over last season's respective 4.27 and 1.36 figures, but his fantasy utility remains limited in many formats due to his lack of hold and save opportunities.

Athletics' Santiago Casilla: Reinstated from 10-day DL
Santiago Casilla (shoulder) was activated from the disabled list prior to Friday's game.Casilla didn't wind up missing too much time on the DL after going down with a shoulder strain near the end of May, though this has been a consistent issue for the right-hander since spring training, so it's worth keeping an eye on moving forward. Over 16 appearances this year, Casilla has logged a 3.32 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with a 14:14 K:BB over 21.1 innings of relief.

Athletics' Santiago Casilla: Could be activated Friday
Santiago Casilla (shoulder) could be activated from the disabled list as soon as Friday according to manager Bob Melvin, Jane Lee of MLB.com reports.The 37-year-old has made one rehab start, firing a scoreless first inning for High-A Stockton on Tuesday. That appears to have been enough to corroborate Casilla's return to health, and with the Oakland Athletics' bullpen still short-handed, his presence after a relatively brief absence would be a welcome sight.

Athletics' Santiago Casilla: Throws 14 pitches in rehab start
Santiago Casilla (shoulder) fired a scoreless first inning for High-A Stockton against San Jose on Tuesday, allowing a hit and recording a strikeout.The one hit he surrendered was a two-bagger, but Casilla was otherwise effective while getting nine of his 14 pitches into the strike zone. It was an efficient inning for the typically control-challenged veteran, who was making his first rehab appearance since going on the disabled list May 26. Casilla may log one more outing in the minors or possibly be deemed ready for activation.

Athletics' Santiago Casilla: Throws bullpen Friday

Athletics' Santiago Casilla: Officially placed on DL
Santiago Casilla (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day disabled list Saturday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.As expected, Casilla was sent to the shelf with a shoulder strain that has been bothering him since spring training.

Chris Bassitt was recalled from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding roster move.
