Jamie Moyer has been designated for assignment by the Rockies. Moyer, 49, said in a news conference that he still had hopes of continuing his career elsewhere but his immediate plan was to return home and attend a son's high school graduation. "It's a tough pill to swallow but it's part of the business," the left-hander said. The Rockies recalled Carlos Torres from Triple-A Colorado Springs to take Moyer's roster spot.
