The Colorado Rockies have leaned on relief pitcher Jimmy Herget this season. But in the past week, he has experienced a noticeable uptick in his workload.

After being called from the Rockies bullpen for the fourth time within the span of a week, Herget arrived at a news conference with a humorous T-shirt that referenced the state of his throwing arm.

After Colorado's win over the Arizona Diamondbacks Friday, the veteran pitcher wore a shirt that said, "My Arm Hurts."

"It's just a funny little thing I like to do after I pitch," Herget told reporters.

He then clarified his status. 

"I feel fine," Herget added.

Relief pitchers are sometimes called to the mound for back-to-back games, but Herget will likely welcome some rest after his four appearances over seven days.

Herget owns a 2.73 ERA this season and has appeared in 44 games.

Herget made eight relief appearances with the Atlanta Braves last season. He spent 2021-23 with the Los Angeles Angels.

The Rockies entered Saturday night's game against the Diamondbacks at the bottom of the NL West standings.
