| 8/26/10 | Brad Hawpe had not quite cleared waivers yet, and teams still had all day Tuesday to claim the outfielder if they wanted to pay his salary for the rest of the year. |
| 8/25/10 | A source informed Troy Renck of the Denver Post that Brad Hawpe has cleared waivers and is now able to sign with any team. The waivers were just a formality anyway.

| 8/19/10 | The Denver Post reports that Brad Hawpe will be released by the Rockies. |
| 8/19/10 | According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com that Brad Hawpe has cleared waivers. Hawpe can now be traded to any team. The Rockies are expected to make a move rather quickly. He should drum up some interest, but it's worth noting that he's hitting just .175 with two homers, four RBI and a 642 OPS since the All-Star break. His contract includes a $10 million club option for next season or a $500,000 buyout. It's possible that the Rockies just cut bait with him if they don't find a deal to their liking.

| 7/31/10 | ESPN's Jayson Stark is reporting that the Rockies are telling teams they couldn't trade Brad Hawpe right now even if they wanted to. Allegedly it's because they might need him to play first base with the uncertain health of Todd Helton. We are highly skeptical that this is more than just posturing, as Colorado surely wouldn't blink at unloading Hawpe and the money owed to him if they got a decent package in return. The two teams that reportedly have had interest in him, the Tigers and White Sox, probably aren't offering much of a package. |
