According to Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe, Rockies reliever Manny Corpas has been placed on waivers. Bear in mind that it's likely just a procedural move and does not mean Corpas is going to be traded. Corpas struggled in April and May and lost the closer job. The 25 year-old has a 2.50 ERA and 8.67 K/BB since the beginning of June though. He's signed cheaply through 2011 with club options on '12...
