Scott Oberg Activated From Disabled List
6 years agoThe Colorado Rockies activated relief pitcher Scott Oberg from the disabled list in hopes that he'll help steady the ship in the worst bullpen in the majors. Oberg had been sidelined for 15 games due to a strained lower back, and the bullpen has been atrocious while he was out. It wasn't purely that Oberg was missing, as even the regulars have pitched horribly this season, but fill-in Brooks Pounders carried a ridiculous 10.13 ERA over the last couple weeks. Oberg will mostly serve as middle relief, but with the group as a whole struggling so badly, he could easily see himself pitching in Hold situations regularly.
