Luke Weaver - Dealing with blisterWeaver was removed from Thursday's Cactus League start due to a blister on the knuckle of his right thumb, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

ImpactWeaver exited Thursday's matchup after three innings but didn't seem too concerned about the issue after the game. It's not yet clear whether the blister will impact his availability for the start of the regular season, but it seems unlikely that he'll face a lengthy absence if he's sidelined at all.

ImpactWeaver allowed two hits and two walks and had three strikeouts over three scoreless frames before leaving with an apparent blister or fingernail issue during the fourth inning. The team should update his status in the near future, but the right-hander's status for Opening Day since the April 7 opener is only a week away.

ImpactThe demotions of Sheffield and Ben Bowden to the minors in the Rockies' latest round of roster cuts likely solidifies spots for the likes of Justin Lawrence, Ashton Goudeau and Ty Blach in Colorado's Opening Day bullpen. Sheffield made 30 appearances in his first big-league season with Colorado in 2021, posting a 3.38 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 20:13 K:BB in 29.1 innings.

ImpactBowden made 39 appearances out of the bullpen for the Rockies last year but won't make the Opening Day roster. He had a 6.56 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 42:21 K:BB across 35.2 innings and may need to pitch better in 2022 to warrant additional opportunities.
