FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal writes that the Rockies could release Ramon Hernandez if they are unable to find a trade partner. The Rockies are expected to carry Yorvit Torrealba as a backup to Wilin Rosario, so there figures to be a resolution this week. The 36-year-old is due $3.2 million this season, so it may be tough to attract much interest unless they cover a portion of the contract. He wouldn't have any trouble finding a home if he hit free agency, though.
