Red Sox Trade Manny Delcarmen

The Red Sox have traded relief pitcher and Boston native Manny Delcarmen to the Rockies for pitcher Chris Balcom-Miller and cash.

Here’s more on Balcom-Miller from the Denver Post:

Chris Balcom-Miller has become one of the hottest pitchers in the Rockies’ farm system, just in time for the Asheville Tourists’ race to gain the postseason in the South Atlantic League.

Drafted in the sixth round of the June 2009 draft, Balcom-Miller has won his last five decisions and pulled his record to 6-6. With Balcom- Miller being the stopper, the Tourists are clinging to a game lead in the second half of the season in the divisional race.
