The Colorado Rockies and Florida Marlins thought swapping struggling right-handers might solve some of their pitching woes. So, the Rockies sent Byung-Hyun Kim to Florida for Jorge Julio.
Julio is 0-2 with a 12.54 ERA with eleven walks and 6 strikeouts in 10 appearances this season, and is 13-30 with a 4.41 ERA over 353 games, including career 126 starts.
Kim went 1-2 with a 10.50 ERA in three relief appearances after losing his starting job this spring, then went on the disabled list with a bruised right thumb in mid-April. He was 1-1 with a 2.96 ERA in 24.1 innings with the AAA Colorado Springs Sky Sox in five rehab starts.

What a pointless trade.
What happened to Julio....I remember when he came up with Baltimore he had a 100 mph fastball and was supposed to be the future closer for them....
Obviously he is a head case...
We all know about BK...he still has nightmares of Scottie Brosius
Haha! Oh my god, Scott Brocius. Name of the day, for sure.
What a pointless trade.
seriously, both teams would be better served by cutting this two loose and bringing up some young pitcher to take their place.
