JOSH COLLMENTER RUMORS
TERRIFIC TEAMWORK
D-backs catcher, pitcher combine for circus catch
Your browser does not support iframes. Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Miguel Montero and pitcher Josh Collmenter combined for an impressive circus catch on a popup in the eighth inning of Sunday night's game at Marlin Park. Miami Marlins batter Adeiny Hechavarria tried to bunt the ball, but popped it up down the third base line. Montero chased it and failed to catch it, but...

Collmenter makes perhaps catch of the year
The 2-1 putout isn't a common one in baseball; most of the ones that do occur are on wild pitchespassed balls that result in the pitcher covering the plate. So how does a pitcher record a 2-1 putout on a ball that never touches the ground?
Diamondbacks reliever Josh Collmenter did just that in Sunday's game against the Marlins -- with an assist (literally) from catcher Miguel...

D-backs appreciative of Collmenter's versatility
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Diamondbacks long reliever Josh Collmenter led a group of rookies to the Arizona Renaissance Festival in Apache Junction on Saturday for the second year in a row. He's become the ringleader of what may become an annual rookie hazing ritual.
It could hardly be more fitting that Collmenter would be the player to take on the responsibility, as he's also...

D-backs place Collmenter on DL
The Arizona Diamondbacks placed right-hander Josh Collmenter on the 15-day disabled list on Friday with ulcers.
Collmenter started the season in the rotation but demoted to the bullpen after four rocky starts. He returned to the rotation to make five starts and has posted a 3-1 record and a 2.41 ERA in his last 18 appearances. Collmenter is 3-3 overall with a 4.24 ERA in 22 games...

Collmenter draws praise for 'icy' bounceback
PHOENIX -- A red t-shirt with "USA" in blue lettering hung from Josh Collmenter's locker Friday night to honor the opening of the Olympic Games. The Diamondbacks pitcher also walked to the plate twice Friday with the Olympic theme playing.
Collmenter's performance in the D-backs' 11-5 win over the Mets was hardly medal worthy, but his effort to keep his team...

D-backs' Collmenter thriving in relief role
PHOENIX -- In baseball, as with anything else, no one ever wants to lose his job. Such was the case with Diamondbacks pitcher Josh Collmenter, who was bumped from the rotation to the bullpen after just four starts.
Collmenter took the demotion in stride, though, embracing his new role as a reliever and has thrived since making the switch.
"It's helped me get back on track...

Diamondbacks move Collmenter to bullpen, promote Corbin
The Arizona Diamondbacks made a long-anticipated move by sending starter Josh Collmenter to the bullpen. However, instead of replacing him with top prospects Trevor Bauer or Tyler Skaggs, they went with the third best starter down in AA Mobile: Pat Corbin.
Earlier this week, I talked about the possibility of Arizona shifting Collmenter out of the rotation and replacing him with...

Collmenter improves, but results still absent
PHOENIX -- Little by little Diamondbacks pitcher Josh Collmenter is starting to look like the starter that played a key role in the team's run to an NL West crown last season. The only problem? The results still aren't there.
Collmenter again improved on his last outing Tuesday but a pair of bad innings saddled him with a loss in a game the Phillies took 8-5.
Despite Collmenter...

Collmenter improves for D-backs despite loss
PHOENIX -- Josh Collmenter didn't go deep into Thursday's game, but he did make his longest start of the season. He didn't baffle Braves hitters, but he did allow fewer runs than either of his previous two starts this season.
It wasn't pretty, but Collmenter rediscovered some much needed confidence Thursday night and bought himself more time in the Diamondbacks...

D-backs' Collmenter expanding pitching repertoire
(Eds: Adds details, quotes.) Josh Collmenter baffled hitters last season with his unconventional, over-the-top delivery en route to becoming a vital piece of the Arizona Diamondbacks' NL West championship team.
The concern with a pitcher like Collmenter, who relies on deception, is that once hitters have faced him a few times, they will be able to make adjustments. That'...
