The Rockies are actively shopping Jeremy Guthrie, according to ESPN's Buster Olney.
It's doubtful that they will find a taker, unless the Rockies eat a majority of the money owed to Guthrie and accept next to nothing in return. Guthrie, acquired from the Orioles over the winter for Jason Hammel and Matt Lindstrom, is pitching on a one-year, $8.2 million deal. He made it just three innings Sunday against Detroit, allowing four runs -- three earned -- on eight hits and two walks to bring his ERA to 7.02 through 59 innings. If Colorado can't find a taker, they might banish him to the bullpen or even consider designating Guthrie for assignment.
