Rotowire
The Rays reassigned Seabold to minor-league camp Sunday.
Seabold previously made 19 starts at the big-league level between stops with the Red Sox and Rockies from 2021 through 2023, but he fell short in his bid for a spot in the Rays' Opening Day rotation.

Seabold was released by the Rockies on Wednesday, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports.

Rockies' Connor Seabold: Struggles again Saturday
Rotowire
Seabold (1-7) allowed six runs on six hits and two walks while striking out one over 2.1 innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Yankees.
Seabold has completely fallen apart with 30 runs allowed over his last 19 innings. All of them have been earned, and yielding 10 home runs in that span certainly isn't helping his cause, though half of those long balls have come in his two road starts in that span. Seabold now has a 7.18 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 54:24 K:BB through 72.2 innings on the year. Despite the crooked numbers, the Rockies are currently lacking in pitching depth, so he can be tentatively projected to make a road start in Miami next week.

Rockies' Connor Seabold: Cleared for next start
Rotowire
Seabold (arm) is scheduled to start Tuesday's game against the Dodgers at Coors Field.
Though Seabold missed his last turn through the rotation due to an unspecified right arm issue, the Rockies determined the injury wasn't significant enough to require a trip to the IL. Seabold apparently made it out of his weekend throwing session no worse for the wear, so he'll get the green light to make his 10th start of the season Tuesday. Seabold takes a 1-3 record, 5.88 ERA and 1.48 WHIP into the outing.

Rotowire
Seabold (1-3) took the loss against Atlanta on Saturday, allowing nine runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out one batter over three innings.
Seabold had been on a roll coming into the contest, posting a 2.08 ERA and 0.92 WHIP over his previous three starts. That momentum came to a grinding halt Saturday, as the right-hander yielded a season-high nine runs and nine hits while retiring just nine batters.

His ERA jumped from 4.70 to 5.88 as a result of the poor outing.

Rockies' Connor Seabold: Turns in quality start
Rotowire
Seabold allowed two runs on two hits and two walks while striking out four over six-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Giants on Wednesday.
Seabold left in line for the win, but poor outings from relievers Brent Suter and Justin Lawrence squandered the Rockies' lead. This was Seabold's first career quality start, and it certainly seems like he's growing into a starter role after beginning the year in the bullpen. The right-hander has given up three runs, five hits and four walks while striking out nine over his last 11.1 innings, lowering his ERA to 5.10 and his WHIP to 1.41 with a 36:17 K:BB through 47.2 innings this season. He's lined up for a road start versus his former team, the Red Sox, next week.
