Only two left-handed relievers pitched for the Rockies in 2020. They tossed a combined 11 1⁄3 innings.
One of those arms, James Pazos, was designated for assignment on Monday.
Pazos pitched in six games this year, throwing a combined 5 1⁄3 innings. His left-handed counterpart in the bullpen, Phillip Diehl, threw six frames over six appearances of his own. For all of September, both reported to the alternate training site. It rendered the Rockies bullpen without a lefty for their final 25 games.
