Colorado Rockies — As we predicted this morning, John Axford has lost his job as Rockies closer after a string of five straight miserable appearances. Walt Weiss said that he had not yet decided who would take over, but name-checked Tommy Kahnle, Rafael Betancourt, and Justin Miller, who had six saves at AAA Albuquerque this season.
Updated hierarchy: *Kahnle | Betancourt | Miller.
* = closer-by-committee
