Rockies DFA Matt Murton

According to Doug Miller of MLB.com, the Rockies have designated outfielder Matt Murton for assignment.The move cleared roster space for reliever Juan Rincon, who was activated from the disabled list Wednesday evening and will add depth to the Rockies' bullpen for the stretch run.  Murton, now 27, hit .267/.327/.444 in 45 at-bats with the Rockies earlier this season and had a .321 batting average with 71 RBI for Triple-A Colorado Springs.  With those kind of numbers, he's sure to draw interest from opposing ball clubs.
