Edwin Daniel Bellorín Morales (born February 21, 1982, in San Félix, Venezuela) is a Major League Baseball catcher for the Colorado Rockies.

Career

Bellorín was signed by the Los Angeles Dodgers on September 10, 1998, as an undrafted free agent. He spent six years in the Dodgers minor league system, never playing more than 100 games in a season. He declared free agency on October 15, 2006, and would later sign with the Colorado Rockies for the 2007 season. He began the year with the Colorado Springs Sky Sox, the Rockies Triple-A affiliate. On August 6, 2007, he had his contract purchased by the big league club. He replaced struggling catcher Chris Ianetta on the Rockies' active roster.

On August 7, 2007, Bellorín played in his first MLB game, which was an 11-4 Rockies home win over the Milwaukee Brewers.

He was placed on the disabled list afterwards. [ [http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/story/10286710 Colorado Rockies, Alvin Colina, Edwin Bellorin, Major League Baseball - CBSSports.com ] ]
