DALLAS -- The Twins sent right-hander Kevin Slowey to the Rockies for a player to be named, the team announced Tuesday.

Slowey, 27, went 0-8 with a 6.67 ERA in 59 1/3 innings last season. He started the season in the bullpen but battled forearm issues and an abdominal strain, and finished the season in the starting rotation.

Slowey, though, struggled as a starter, going 0-8 with a 7.25 ERA in eight outings down the stretch. Because of his struggles, Slowey, who made $2.7 million last season, was a non-tender candidate for the Twins.
