The Colorado Rockies today seemingly undid the move that made yesterday to optioned down Rafael Ynoa to AAA and in turn call up Christhian Adames from AAA. Today, however the Rockies optioned down Adames in a move to strengthen their bullpen from within by recalling Reliever Rex Brothers, Brothers who has problems with control in the past is back up with the Rockies to have a chance to strengthen the bullpen, there are rumors swirling around Rockies camp that Brothers may tentatively take over the closing role from LaTroy Hawkins after all 3 outings haven't gone as smoothly as anticipated. One of the biggest announcements of the day besides the recalling of Brothers was the adding of Top Outfield Prospect David Dahl to the 40 Man Roster, as well as the promotion of Center Fielder Rosell Herrera to AA.

Here is the full list of today's transactions by the Rockies:
