The Rockies signed Brebbia to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training Monday, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brebbia concluded the 2025 season with an ugly 7.71 ERA, though he did notch 26 strikeouts over 23.1 frames during his time with Detroit and Atlanta. The 35-year-old has a decent chance of cracking the Rockies' Opening Day roster as a middle reliever.

Brebbia signed a minor-league contract with the Red Sox on Saturday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brebbia entered free agency after being DFA'd by Atlanta on Monday, and he'll now give the Red Sox some organizational bullpen depth at Triple-A Worcester to close out the season. The 35-year-old righty won't be eligible to pitch in the postseason.

Brebbia elected to become a free agent Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran reliever cleared waivers after being removed from Atlanta's 40-man roster, and he's opted for free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment. Brebbia has made 22 relief appearances between Detroit and Atlanta this season, posting a 7.71 ERA.

Atlanta designated Brebbia for assignment Monday.
EDGE Analysis
He'll give up his spot on the 40-man roster and 28-man active roster to right-hander Alexis Diaz, whom Atlanta claimed off waivers from the Dodgers. After being called up from Triple-A Gwinnett on Aug. 29, Brebbia appeared in three games out of the Atlanta bullpen and surrendered five runs (four earned) on six hits and one walk while striking out six batters over 4.2 innings.

Atlanta selected Brebbia's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Brebbia posted a 1.89 ERA and 21:3 K:BB over 19 innings with Gwinnett after inking a minor-league contract with Atlanta in June. The veteran reliever holds an unsightly 7.71 ERA at the big-league level this season and will work in middle relief.

Atlanta signed Brebbia to a minor-league contract Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Brebbia was released by the Tigers last week after collecting a 7.71 ERA, 1.77 WHIP and 20:11 K:BB across 18.2 innings. The 35-year-old finished last season with Atlanta, allowing two runs with a 9:2 K:BB over 6.2 frames. Brebbia will report to Triple-A Gwinnett for now but could get another opportunity in the majors sooner rather than later.

The Tigers designated Brebbia for assignment Sunday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right-hander has given up seven runs in his past four outings, and he's now lost his place on Detroit's 26-man active roster and 40-man roster. Brebbia has a 7.71 ERA, 1.77 WHIP and 20:11 K:BB across 18.2 innings this season and will now go through the waivers process.

The Tigers activated Brebbia (triceps) from the 15-day injured list Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Brebbia missed three weeks of action with a right triceps strain but is ready to go after making a couple rehab appearances. He permitted just one earned run through nine innings before getting hurt.

Brebbia (triceps) has resumed a throwing program, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brebbia just landed on the 15-day injured list this past weekend with a right triceps strain, so it's a good sign that he's already playing catch. The reliever will be eligible for activation May 4, and it would seem he has a shot to be ready at that time.
