Carson Palmquist Heads Back to Minors
Carson Palmquist to Triple-A Albuquerque and recalled right-hander Anthony Molina from Albuquerque in a corresponding move. It's back to the farm for more seasoning for the 24-year-old southpaw after he struggled in his first five big-league starts, going 0-4 with a 7.77 ERA and 1.82 WHIP with 16 strikeouts and 13 walks in 22 innings pitched. It's quite possible that fellow lefty Austin Gomber (shoulder) will come off the 60-day injured list to replace Palmquist in Colorado's starting rotation. Per MLB Pipeline, Palmquist is considered the team's No. 7 prospect. He doesn't have overpowering stuff on the mound but has plenty of deception in his delivery and with his lower arm slot. Obviously, he's going to need to throw more strikes in the big leagues to have success.
