• Rockies' Carson Palmquist: Slated to pitch Wednesday

  Rotowire Mar 11, 2024

  Palmquist (arm) is expected to cover two innings in relief behind starter Tanner Gordon in Wednesday's Cactus League game against Atlanta, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports. The appearance will be Palmquist's third of the spring and his first since Feb. 28, when he departed after one inning in an outing against the Angels due to an injury to his non-throwing arm. Palmquist's inclusion on the Rockies' pitching schedule for Wednesday's contest is an indication that he's moved past the health concern, but his longshot bid for Colorado's Opening Day roster has already come to an end. The Rockies reassigned him to minor-league camp earlier this month, and Palmquist is expected to begin the 2024 campaign as a member of Double-A Hartford's rotation.

• Rockies' Carson Palmquist: Bothered by non-throwing arm

  Rotowire Feb 28, 2024

  Palmquist was removed from his relief appearance in Wednesday's Cactus League game the Angels due to an apparent right arm injury, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports. Palmquist is a southpaw, so while his injury is to his non-throwing arm, it's still less than ideal that he wasn't able to stay in the game after hitting Anthony Rendon with a pitch to lead off the fifth inning. The southpaw had previously worked a clean fourth inning, working around a one-out double by striking out Mike Trout to end the frame. The 23-year-old is likely to open the 2024 season at either Triple-A Albuquerque or Double-A Hartford.
