Parker Mushinski Elects Free Agency Following 2026 Season With Rockies

Left-hander Parker Mushinski has elected free agency following a tumultuous 2026 campaign with the Colorado Rockies. After posting a 3.38 ERA in Triple-A Albuquerque, the 30-year-old was promoted to Colorado in August, logging a 2.70 ERA across eight appearances (6.2 innings). However, high-wire peripherals including a 2.10 WHIP, 5.35 FIP, and zero strikeouts led to his designation for assignment on August 19. Mushinski returned to Albuquerque after clearing waivers to finish the year.
