Rockies manager Clint Hurdle named Brian Fuentes the team's new closer.
He will take over for Manny Corpas, who has blown three consecutive saves. Fuentes was a three-time All Star closer before losing his job to Corpas last June, and while his skills have declined somewhat, he should be effective in the ninth inning. He's allowed three runs 11 innings this season, and makes a solid addition in leagues of all sizes.

The Rockies still have a good bullpen. I see them swapping back and forth a few more times this season.
