Rockies Send Seth Halvorsen to Triple-A
Colorado Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer confirmed on Tuesday that the team optioned right-handed reliever Seth Halvorsen to Triple-A Albuquerque, according to Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette. The move means that right-hander Victor Vodnik will most likely open the 2026 season as the favorite for saves in the Rockies' bullpen. Halvorsen led Colorado in 2025 with a career-high 11 saves in just his second major-league season, but he also had an ugly 4.99 ERA (5.20 FIP) and 1.56 WHIP with 36 strikeouts and 21 walks in 39 2/3 relief appearances. Things snowballed for him in spring training, as he allowed 12 earned runs on eight hits (one homer) while walking 12 and striking out only four in five innings pitched in Cactus League action. Halvorsen will surely get another shot at high-leverage work in Denver at some point in 2026, but for now, fantasy managers in single-year leagues can avoid him. In fact, steering clear of the Rockies' bullpen in fantasy leagues is a good strategy in general.
