Owings' contract was selected by the Rockies on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Owings served as a non-roster invitee this spring, but he'll now be added to Colorado's 40-man roster ahead of the regular season. The 29-year-old has slashed .292/.357/.940 with one home run, three RBI and three stolen bases over 24 at-bats during Cactus League play and should serve as a utility player for the Rockies to begin the year.
