Almonte was traded to the Rockies on Tuesday in exchange for reliever Tommy Kahnle.
The 21-year-old righty had an impressive 2.42 ERA and 39:12 K:BB in 44.2 innings (mostly as a starter) at High-A last year. That said, as a low-pedigree Rockies pitching prospect who has not yet reached Double-A, he has little value in dynasty leagues.
