The two sides ultimately agreed on a one-year deal worth $3.6 million for what will be Lopez&amp;#8217;s free agent walk year. Not long after signing him to the deal, Seattle shipped Lopez to the Rockies for 24-year-old Triple-A righthander &lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.baseballamerica.com\\/statistics\\/players\\/cards\\/?pl_id=73085\\\"&gt;Chaz Roe&lt;\\/a&gt;, the 32nd overall pick in the 2005 draft who has yet to pitch in the big leagues. &lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;\\t\\t\\t\\tLopez batted .285\\/.313\\/.453 with 42 home runs for the Mariners during the 2008-09 seasons, and while he almost never walked, he showed plenty of power with 40-plus doubles in both seasons. Seattle could live with the glove at second base, and at age 25 it was easy to project future all-around improvement for Lopez. But then 2010 happened. The Mariners shifted Lopez to third base in an effort to shoehorn free agent signee Chone Figgins in at the keystone. The move backfired when both players had down years.&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;\\/tr&gt;\\n&lt;tr&gt;\\n&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;\\/tr&gt;\\n&lt;tr class=\\\"headerRow\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;td&gt;Mariners Acquire&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;\\/tr&gt;\\n&lt;tr&gt;\\n&lt;td&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Chaz Roe, rhp&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Age:&lt;\\/span&gt; 24.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Born:&lt;\\/span&gt; Oct. 9, 1986 in Stuebenville, Ohio.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Ht.:&lt;\\/span&gt; 6-5. &lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Wt.:&lt;\\/span&gt; 190. &lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Bats:&lt;\\/span&gt; R. &lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Throws:&lt;\\/span&gt; R.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;School:&lt;\\/span&gt; Lafayette HS, Lexington, Ky.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Career Transactions:&lt;\\/span&gt; Selected by Rockies in supplemental first round (32nd overall) of 2005 draft; signed June 18, 2005.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;table width=\\\"100%\\\" cellspacing=\\\"0\\\" cellpadding=\\\"2\\\" border=\\\"0\\\" class=\\\"small\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;tbody&gt;\\n&lt;tr&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"20%\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Club (League)&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;Class&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;W&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;L&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;ERA&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;G&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;GS&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;SV&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;IP&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;H&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;R&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;ER&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;HR&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;BB&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;SO&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;td width=\\\"4%\\\" align=\\\"right\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-weight: bold;\\\"&gt;WHIP&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;\\/tr&gt;\\n&lt;tr&gt;\\n&lt;td&gt;Colo.

He regained velocity on his fastball after going back to his high school mechanics in &amp;#8217;09, and he works with two other pitches that often sit average. Command has been Roe&amp;#8217;s undoing. He throws downhill at 89-91 mph with some tailing action, while mixing in a good slider in the mid-80s and a sinking changeup. He keeps the ball on the ground, but a lot of those grounders found holes in the Triple-A Pacific Coast League (210 hits in 158 innings). He lacks a put-away pitch to finish batters with two strikes. On the plus side, Roe completed the season in good health for the first time since &amp;#8217;07, and he throws a curveball that sometimes functions as a swing-and-miss pitch. With four average-ish pitches and a feel to use them, all signs point to Roe being a back-of-the-rotation starter or middle reliever, especially outside of Colorado Springs and in the context of Seattle&amp;#8217;s forgiving Safeco Field.&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;\\/tr&gt;\\n&lt;tr&gt;\\n&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;\\/td&gt;\\n&lt;\\/tr&gt;\\n&lt;tr class=\\\"headerRow\\\"&gt;\\n&lt;td&gt;Rockies
