Rockies acquired RHP Steven Hensley from the Mariners for RHP Aaron Harang.

Hensley was a fourth-round pick of the M's in 2008, but the 26-year-old right-hander posted a weak 6.27 ERA in 37 1/3 innings last season at Triple-A and is basically just a throw in. The Rockies saved themselves about $2.5 million by dumping Ramon Hernandez for Harang and then flipping Harang to Seattle.
