Angel Chivilli (born July 28, 2002) is a Dominican professional baseball pitcher for the Colorado Rockies of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut in 2024.

Career

On July 30, 2018, Chivilli signed with the Colorado Rockies as an international free agent.[1] He made his professional debut in 2019 with the Dominican Summer League Rockies. Chivilli did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]

Chivilli returned to the DSL Rockies in 2021, recording a 3.49 ERA and 45 strikeouts across 11 games (8 starts).[3] He split the 2022 campaign between the rookie–level Arizona Complex League Rockies and Single–A Fresno Grizzlies. In 32 games out of the bullpen for the two affiliates, Chivilli accumulated a 2.21 ERA with 51 strikeouts across 40+23 innings pitched.[4]

Chivilli spent 2023 with the High–A Spokane Indians and Double–A Hartford Yard Goats. He made 53 appearances for the two affiliates, compiling a 4–9 record and 5.61 ERA with 68 strikeouts and 17 saves.[5] On November 14, 2023, the Rockies added Chivilli to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. He was optioned to Double–A Hartford to begin the 2024 season.[6]

On May 3, 2024, Chivilli was promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[7] He was optioned down to Hartford on May 6 without having appeared for Colorado, becoming a phantom ballplayer.[8] On June 3, Chivilli was once more promoted to the major leagues.[9] This time, he made his MLB debut.[10]
