The Colorado Rockies lost closer Daniel Bard before their opening day could even get started.
SAN DIEGO — Rockies closer Daniel Bard, who overcame the yips to resurrect his baseball career and produce one of the best seasons in club history, was placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday with what Bard is calling anxiety issues.
The club made the move just hours before Colorado opened its season against the Padres at Petco Park. “It’s a hard thing to admit,” Bard said. “But I’ve been through this before. … I’m extremely grateful to be in an organization that understands these things and is accepting.”Last season, Bard posted a 1.79 ERA and had a career-high 34 saves. His 91.9 save percentage was the best in majors and the second-best in a single season in Rockies franchise history. Huston Street had a 94.6% save rate in 2009.
