The Colorado Rockies are pursuing free-agent right-hander Hiroki Kuroda, according to a report Saturday in the online edition of the Denver Post.
The report said the Rockies "believe they have a decent shot (at acquiring Kuroda) based on preliminary conversations," adding that Kuroda "fits the profile Colorado has been seeking since the final out in September."
The 36-year-old Kuroda, who had a steady season with the Los Angeles Dodgers, going 13-16 with a 3.07 ERA, has attracted interest from 10 teams, including nearly the entire National League West, the report said.
