Rockies' Ty Blach: Reaches deal with Rockies

Blach signed a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Friday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Blach pitched in the majors from 2016 to 2019, recording a 4.99 ERA while striking out just 12.7 percent of opposing batters. He missed most of the last two seasons due to Tommy John surgery, returning last in the year to throw 22 rehab innings in the lower minors. His past major-league experience gives him a shot at claiming a roster spot, but he's unlikely to provide much fantasy value even when pitching away from Coors Field.
