Curtiss was designated for assignment by the Rockies on Monday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curtiss was just added to the team Friday and didn't make much of an impression in his Rockies debut, allowing two runs on three hits while recording just one out. The journeyman will make way for Josh Rogers, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Albuquerque.

The Rockies reassigned Curtiss to minor-league camp Sunday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curtiss joined the Rockies on a minor-league deal in late January after his 2023 campaign with the Mets came to an early end in August, when he required an arthroscopic procedure to remove a loose body from his right elbow. Though he received a clean bill of health heading into spring training, Curtiss submitted a 9.82 ERA and 2.05 WHIP over 7.1 innings in Cactus League play to effectively remove himself from consideration for a spot in Colorado's Opening Day bullpen.

Curtiss (elbow) elected to become a free agent Monday, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
He'll head to free agency rather than accept an outright assignment by the Mets. Curtiss had arthroscopic elbow surgery in August and it's not clear when he might be ready to pitch in games again.

The Mets placed Curtiss (elbow) on outright waivers Thursday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curtiss has been on the 60-day IL since August, so the Mets don't gain a roster spot by waiving the 30-year-old reliever. However, the move gives Curtiss the option to elect free agency and decide where he plays in 2024. Curtiss put up a 4.58 ERA and 1.27 WHIP through 19.2 innings before undergoing season-ending elbow surgery.

The Mets recalled Curtiss from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday and placed him on the 60-day injured list with a loose body in his right elbow, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is a procedural move to clear out a 40-man roster spot for Sam Coonrod, who has been activated from the 60-day IL following a five-month absence to heal a high-grade lat strain. Curtiss is presumably done for the year.
