- The Colorado Rockies have signed veteran pitchers Jose Quintana and Tomoyuki Sugano to one-year contracts, despite being in a rebuilding phase.
- Quintana, 37, is joining his 9th MLB team and had a solid 2025 season with the Brewers. Sugano, 36, was a rookie with the Orioles last year but led the AL in home runs allowed.
- The short-term nature of the contracts suggests the Rockies may look to trade these pitchers for prospects at the deadline, as they continue to rebuild their roster.
