Matt Belisle $4.25-Million Contract Option Picked Up Colorado Rockies

DENVER (AP) — The Colorado Rockies and right-handed reliever Matt Belisle have exercised their mutual option for 2014, the team announced through its Twitter account Monday.

Belisle is scheduled to make $4.25 million next season.

The 33-year-old Belisle went 5-7 with a 4.32 ERA in 73 innings this year, striking out 62 and walking 15 in his fifth season with the Rockies.

Last month, the team exercised the club option on left-handed pitcher Jorge De La Rosa, who was stellar on the mound last season as he finished 16-6 with a 3.49 ERA. The 32-year-old is scheduled to make $11 million next year.
