The Dodgers claimed Zac Rosscup from the Rockies on Wednesday, bolstering Los Angeles’ stable of arms on its 40-man roster with a southpaw who has been performing well lately in Triple-A Albuquerque.
Since returning June 13 from a 60-day disabled list stint due to a wart on his left middle finger, the 30-year-old made 10 appearances out of the bullpen for the Isotopes, posting a 1.08 ERA and holding hitters to a .133 average.
Rosscup was originally selected in the 28th round of the 2009 draft by the Rays and was then traded to Chicago, where he played parts of four seasons before being traded to Colorado in June 2017.
In 71 big-league innings over five seasons, Rosscup has a 3-1 record with a 5.30 ERA and 1.55 WHIP. He was on a one-year, $610k contract with the Rockies, according to Baseball Reference.
