Colorado Rockies catcher Chris Iannetta is set to be released on Tuesday according to Thomas Harding at MLB.com. The 36-year-old is finishing up his second tour with the Rockies, but with the team continuing to be in one of the worst slides in franchise history, they have decided to give a youngster, Dom Nunez, a shot as the backup from here on out. Iannetta was hitting just .222 on the season, and he's mostly been used as a pinch-hitter since Tony Wolters has come into his own at the plate ...

Sunday was a strange day for Colorado Rockies catcher Chris Iannetta. He led off in three different innings in the game, he walked all three of those times, and he came around to score on each occasion.

Colorado Rockies catcher Chris Iannetta isn't having a spectacular season by any measurement, but at least he made his way on to a leaderboard. Iannetta took a 2-2 pitch to one of the furthest places the Rockies have ever seen. Iannetta's tape measure home run smacked off the bricks at the very back of the stadium, clocking in at 476 feet. That's the third-longest home run hit in the majors this season, and his teammates went crazy at the solo shot. The 36-year-old obviously still has plenty of[...]
