Misses out on Opening Day roster
PColorado Rockies  
March 24, 2022
The Rockies reassigned Hammer to their minor-league camp Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Hammer took himself out of consideration for a spot in the Rockies' Opening Day bullpen by giving up five earned runs on five hits over three innings across his three Cactus League appearances. The 27-year-old, who previously made 40 relief appearances in the majors with the Phillies between the 2019 and 2021 seasons, will report to Triple-A Albuquerque to begin the 2022 campaign, though he could request a release from his minor-league contract at some point if he recognizes a better opportunity with another organization.
