Colorado Rockies Transactions

		The Colorado Rockies and second baseman Brendan Rodgers avoided salary arbitration on Friday by agreeing to a one-year, $2.7 million deal. In his fourth year in the big leagues with the Rockies in 2022, Rodgers slashed .266/.325/.408 with a .733 OPS, 13 home runs, 63 RBI and 72 runs scored in 581 plate appearances and a career-high 137 games. He hasn't been much to look at from a fantasy perspective with only 28 home runs, 123 RBI and no stolen bases in four seasons at Coors Field, but offers the Rockies great defense at the keystone and could develop more power along the way. Rodgers remains a decent selection as a middle infielder in deep mixed leagues in 2023.

		The Colorado Rockies avoided salary arbitration with left-hander Austin Gomber on Wednesday by agreeing to a one-year, $1.65 million deal, according to sources familiar with the deal. Gomber was a key piece in the blockbuster trade that sent third baseman Nolan Arenado to the St. Louis Cardinals. The 29-year-old southpaw appeared in a career-high 33 games (17 starts) in his second season in Colorado in 2022 and went 5-7 with a career-high 5.56 ERA (4.54 FIP), 1.37 WHIP and career-low 18.0% strikeout rate in 124 1/3 innings pitched. Depending on how he fares in spring training, Gomber could be a candidate to start the regular season in Colorado's starting rotation, but he'd be a pretty shaky streamer in deep leagues.

		According to a tweet from The New York Post's Jon Heyman on Monday, the Colorado Rockies have reportedly signed left-handed relief pitcher Fernando Abad to a minor-league contract. Heyman tweeted the following on Monday morning: "Rockies sign LHP Fernando Abad to a minor league contract with a non roster invite to big league camp." The veteran relief pitcher has made an even 400 appearances at the Major League level. All told, he's logged a 3.77 ERA and a 4.22 FIP in 348.1 career innings of work. He pitched in 16 games for the Baltimore Orioles in 2021, throwing 17.2 innings for the American League East club while registering a 5.60 ERA and a 3.96 FIP. Most recently, Abad threw 43 innings for the Seattle Mariners Triple-A affiliate in 2022, pitching to a 3.56 ERA, a 4.79 FIP, 32 strikeouts, and 12 walks.

		The Colorado Rockies announced on Friday that they claimed right-hander Nick Mears off waivers from the Texas Rangers. With the addition, the Rockies' 40-man roster now sits at 39 players. All three of Mears' major-league seasons in the last three years have come with the Pittsburgh Pirates. He only tossed two scoreless innings for the Bucs in 2022 and has allowed 17 runs (16 earned) on 30 hits while walking 21 and striking out 32 in 30 1/3 relief innings in his three campaigns. The 26-year-old had a 4.80 ERA and 1.40 WHIP down on the farm in 2022, so he'll really need to impress the Rockies coaching staff in spring training in order to get a shot in the Opening Day bullpen in Colorado.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Colorado Rockies are optimistic that third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant (foot) will be ready for spring training after he was limited to 42 games in 2022 due to plantar fasciitis. "Our trainers and strength guys have checked in with him and from everything I'm being told he looks good. We are optimistic about him showing up (healthy) at spring training," general manager Bill Schmidt said. When Bryant was on the field in his first year in Colorado, he hit well, slashing .306/.376/.475 with five home runs in 181 plate appearances. The 30-year-old is no longer in his prime, but he resides in the best hitting environment in baseball and could easily bounce back as a value pick in fantasy drafts if he's able to stay healthy in 2023. We'll be monitoring his status closely as spring training nears.

Wednesday, December 14

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Colorado Rockies agreed to a one-year, $5 million deal with right-hander Pierce Johnson on Tuesday. Johnson will help bolster the team's right-handed relief corps. The 31-year-old went to high school in Colorado before going to Missouri State and becoming a first-round selection by the Cubs in 2012. He posted a 5.02 ERA with 21 strikeouts and eight walks in 14 1/3 relief innings for the San Diego Padres. Johnson was out from late April until September due to right-elbow tendonitis. In five big-league seasons, he has gone 10-9 with a 4.05 ERA in 140 appearances. Johnson held a key role with the Friars in 2020 and 2021, going 6-5 with a 3.09 ERA, 104 K's and 36 walks in 78 2/3 frames. He won't have much fantasy value, if any, in most leagues.

		The Colorado Rockies agreed with free-agent right-hander T.J. Zeuch on a minor-league deal on Friday, according to a source. Zeuch was a former top prospect with the Toronto Blue Jays, and he'll receive an invite to big-league spring training. The 27-year-old was with the Cincinnati Reds in 2022, but he was cut in September after allowing a whopping 18 earned runs on 24 hits while walking seven and striking out five in just 10 2/3 innings over three starts at the major-league level. A back injury likely contributed to his poor performance in a small sample size. The 6-foot-7 pitcher has made only 16 appearances (10 starts) in four major-league seasons, posting a bloated 6.49 ERA (6.73 FIP), a 1.79 WHIP, 36 strikeouts and 31 walks in 59 2/3 innings pitched.

		The Colorado Rockies are optimistic that third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant (foot) will arrive at spring training next year healthy after he was limited to 42 games in 2022 due to injuries. "Our trainers and strength guys have checked in with him and from everything I'm being told he looks good. We are optimistic about him showing up (healthy) at spring training," general manager Bill Schmidt said. Bryant dealt with plantar fasciitis for much of the year after inking a seven-year, $182 million deal with the organization last March. But when he was on the field, he hit a strong .306/.376/.475 with five home runs in 181 plate appearances, giving the Rockies and fantasy managers hope that there's still plenty of juice left. Time will tell if he can stay healthy in 2023, but if he can, he could be a bargain in fantasy drafts.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Colorado Rockies avoided salary arbitration with right-hander Dinelson Lamet on Wednesday by agreeing to an undisclosed one-year deal. Lamet began the 2022 season with the San Diego Padres before being traded to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Rockies then claimed him off waivers from the Brewers in August. The 30-year-old pitched to a 4.05 ERA (3.46 FIP), a 1.20 WHIP, 29 strikeouts and 10 walks in 20 relief innings for Colorado to close out the year. The Padres traded him after he allowed 14 runs (13 earned) on 16 hits while walking nine and striking out 16 in 12 1/3 relief innings to begin the season. Lamet began his MLB career as a starter, but injuries have relegated him to relief duties in recent seasons.

Wednesday, November 16

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Colorado Rockies acquired infielder Nolan Jones from the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday in exchange for infielder Juan Brito. Jones was a former second-round pick and is listed as Cleveland's No. 7 prospect, per MLB Pipeline. The 24-year-old has had some of the best walk rates in the minors over the last couple seasons, and he finished the season at Triple-A Columbus by hitting .276 with nine home runs, 43 RBI, 44 runs, four stolen bases and 31 walks in 55 games. In his first 28 games at the big-league level, Jones hit .244 (21-for-86) with two homers, 13 RBI and 10 runs scored. The left-handed hitter has a chance to play a lot at the hot corner in Colorado in 2023. Brito, meanwhile, was listed as the Rockies' No. 30 prospect. The 21-year-old switch-hitter batted .286 with 11 home runs, 72 RBI, 91 runs and 17 stolen bases in 107 games for Single-A Fresno this year.

Saturday, November 12

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Colorado Rockies re-signed right-hander Jose Urena to a one-year deal worth $3.5 million with an option for the 2024 season on Friday. Urena started the 2022 campaign as a reliever for the Milwaukee Brewers but was cut in may and latched on in Colorado. He made 17 starts for Colorado, going 3-8 with a 5.14 ERA (4.53 FIP), a 1.57 WHIP, 60 strikeouts and 38 walks in 89 1/3 innings pitched. Overall, he had a 5.01 ERA (4.65 FIP), a 1.57 WHIP, 63 K's and 43 walks in 97 innings over 21 appearances (17 starts). The Rockies likely plan to use him in a starting role yet again in 2023, but he'll be a shaky fantasy commodity while pitching half his games at hitter-friendly Coors Field.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon told reporters on Friday that he intends to exercise his $18 million player option for the 2023 season. Blackmon went on to state that he is not thinking beyond the 2023 campaign at the moment. The veteran outfielder went on the injured list earlier in the week with a knee injury that ended his 2022 season. Blackmon is 36 now, but he still showed he has some gas left in the tank as he hit .264 with 16 homers, 78 RBI, 60 runs, and four steals across 135 games played.

Thursday, September 29

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon (knee) was placed on the 10-day injured list with a torn meniscus in his left knee. He will miss the rest of the season. The 36-year-old slashed .264/.314/.419 with 16 home runs, 78 RBI, 60 runs, and four stolen bases over 577 plate appearances in 135 games in 2022. There is no timetable for his recovery, but he is expected to return when Spring Training starts next season. Michael Toglia and Yonathan Daza should see an uptick in at-bats while Blackmon is sidelined.
		The Colorado Rockies activated second baseman Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) from the injured list on Thursday and placed outfielder Connor Joe (ribs) on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Rodgers went on the IL a week ago and will be back for the final handful of games in the 2022 regular season. It remains to be seen if he'll be back in the starting lineup on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants. The 26-year-old is returning to a .261/.319/.396 slash line with 11 homers, 61 RBI and 68 runs in 502 at-bats this year. Joe will miss the rest of the regular season with his injury. He'll finish his season hitting .238/.338/.359 with seven home runs, 28 RBI, 56 runs scored and six stolen bases in 111 games in his second season in Colorado.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon (hamstring) is serving as the designated hitter and is batting cleanup on Tuesday against the San Francisco Giants and right-hander Logan Webb. Blackmon was forced from Sunday's game early against the San Diego Padres with left hamstring soreness, but he will end up not missing a game after Monday's off day. The 36-year-old veteran outfielder has been cold in the month of September, going 16-for-74 (.216) with no homers, seven RBI, three runs scored and 20 strikeouts in 20 games. However, he's been better recently, going 11-for-33 (.333) with three RBI and two runs scored in nine games since Sept. 17.

Sunday, September 25

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies third baseman Kris Bryant (foot) will officially miss the rest of the 2022 season. The 30-year-old slugger mentioned he won't play again this season, but is excited for the 2023 campaign. This shouldn't shock anyone that the Rockies have decided to rest Bryant with only a few games left in the season. He hit .306/.376/.475 with five home runs and 14 RBI in 42 games with the Rockies. The right-hander slugger was sidelined most of the season due to a lingering foot issue. Hopefully, Bryant can rest and completely heal it over the offseason.
		Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (hand) has returned to the starting lineup on Sunday against the San Diego Padres. The veteran slugger missed the previous three games with a sore hand after being hit by a pitch on Wednesday but he's locked in on Sunday and batting cleanup. Cron has mashed 29 home runs with a career-high 101 RBI on the season.

Friday, September 23

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (hand) remains out of the starting lineup on Friday against the San Diego Padres. Cron will miss his second straight game after leaving Wednesday's contest early when he was hit by a pitch on his left hand. Consider him day-to-day for now. The 32-year-old has been an excellent source of power at Coors Field in 2022, as he has 29 home runs and 101 RBI in 547 at-bats. Rookie Michael Toglia will get another start at first base and hit fifth on Friday against Padres left-hander Sean Manaea. Toglia will be playing in his 21st major-league game on Friday, and he's gone 17-for-74 (.230) with two home runs and 10 RBI.
		Colorado Rockies outfielder/third baseman Kris Bryant (foot) worked out in baseball spikes on Friday, marking a significant step towards a possible late-season return. Depending on how he feels after the workout, he could progress fairly quickly into a rehab assignment and play games in the final week of the season. It has been a frustrating, injury-riddled season for Bryant and his fantasy managers, as he has missed time due to a multitude of injuries, with the latest being plantar fasciitis. When he has been healthy, Bryant has been good. He is slashing .306/.376/.475 on the season with five homers in 181 plate appearances. If only he could stay healthy and do it over the course of a full season. The 30-year-old will be an interesting player to debate during the offseason, as he has the talent to be a stud in fantasy, but he likely won't go high in drafts due to his injury history.

Thursday, September 22

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar has reportedly been called up to the big league level. There were rumors that Tovar would join the team before the end of the season. I guess those were true as Tovar is expected to join the Rockies roster on Thursday. He slashed .317/.385/.541 with 14 homers, 49 RBI and 17 stolen bases between Double-A and Triple-A this season. Tovar is the No. 2 prospect, so expect him to get plenty of playing time in Colorado. He has a chance to do some real damage at the plate before the season is over.
		Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (hand) is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants. Cron was hit in the hand by a pitch on Wednesday and is dealing with a left hand contusion, so he'll sit out for at least one game. The right-handed power hitter is batting .238 (15-for-63) with five dingers, 15 RBI and 10 runs scored in 17 games this month, so fantasy managers will be hoping he doesn't miss too many games with the regular season winding down. Rookie Michael Toglia is starting at first base on Thursday and is hitting fifth against Giants right-hander John Brebbia. Toglia will only be playing in his 19th major-league game. He's gone 15-for-66 (.227) with two homers, six doubles and 10 RBI in the early going.
		Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants. Rodgers is dealing with a hamstring injury and was last in the lineup on Sunday. There's a chance he'll be back in the lineup this weekend against the San Diego Padres, though, since his MRI results were encouraging. With Rodgers out another game, Ryan McMahon will get another start at second base and bat leadoff against Giants right-hander John Brebbia on Thursday. McMahon has some DFS sleeper appeal once again despite going 0-for-4 in the loss to the Giants on Wednesday. The 27-year-old has 17 home runs and 63 RBI in 487 at-bats on the season.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the San Francisco Giants. Rodgers remains day-to-day after a recent MRI exam ruled out significant damage, but he'll miss his third straight game for the Rockies. Garrett Hampson is getting the nod at second base in this one and will bat eighth in the lineup against Giants right-hander Logan Webb. There's very little DFS upside with Hampson. He's batting .214 (3-for-14) with an RBI, run scored and six strikeouts in 12 games in September, and he's also slashing just .214/.294/.316 with two long balls, 14 RBI, 28 runs scored and 11 stolen bases in 187 at-bats in 2022.

Monday, September 19

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) will get an MRI exam on his left hamstring on Monday night and won't be in the starting lineup against the San Francisco Giants. Rodgers' injury doesn't feel as bad as the one he dealt with last year, but the Rockies don't know the extent of it yet. He'll be out at least a few days and possibly longer, so fantasy managers need to act accordingly this week. The 26-year-old is slashing .261/.319/.396 with 11 home runs, 61 RBI and 68 runs scored this year in 502 at-bats for the Rockies. Ryan McMahon is at the keystone and is batting leadoff on Monday against Giants right-hander Jakob Junis. McMahon will be a popular DFS selection out of the leadoff spot. He has 17 home runs on the season, with 14 of them coming against right-handed pitching.
		Colorado Rockies third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant (foot) took batting practice on Monday. Bryant, who has been out since July 31, wants to play again this season. He has been increasing his baseball activities in the last week, but with time running out in the 2022 regular season, it remains to be seen if the 30-year-old will return to Colorado's lineup. Because of how long Bryant has been sidelined, it's likely that he'll require a minor league rehab assignment before being activated. It's been frustrating for Bryant and his fantasy managers, as he's hit .306/.376/.475 in 160 at-bats in his first year with the Rockies, but he just hasn't been able to stay on the field.

Sunday, September 18

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers has left Sunday's game early with a potential leg injury, according to beat writer Patrick Saunders. Rodgers went 0-for-1 with an RBI groundout before leaving the contest. Elehuris Montero is covering third base and Ryan McMahon has shifted over to second to cover for Rodgers. The team should provide an update shortly.

Thursday, September 15

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies shortstop prospect Ezequiel Tovar is being promoted to Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday, and the hope is that he finishes the 2022 season with the Rockies. Tovar just finished a rehab assignment after going on the injured list in July with hip and groin injuries. The team's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, hit .318/.386/.546 with a .932 OPS, 13 home runs, 47 RBI, 39 runs scored and 17 stolen bases in 295 plate appearances over 66 games for Double-A Hartford before being promoted. The 21-year-old is one of the best defenders at the 6 in the minor leagues already, and he has also shown improved power this year as his frame matures and he gets stronger. For now, Tovar is only a stash candidate in dynasty/keeper leagues.

Monday, September 05

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant (foot) has increased his activity and is playing catch, but he's still in and out of a walking boot and has no timeline for a return to the team. At this point, it's unlikely that Bryant will return for the Rockies to close out the 2022 season. The 30-year-old slugger has been on the injured list since Aug. 1 while dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He's been solid when on the field in his first year in Colorado, hitting .306/.376/.475 with an .851 OPS, five home runs, 14 RBI and 28 runs scored, but he's managed to play in only 42 games. Sean Bouchard has been the Rockies' everyday left fielder of late with Bryant still sidelined. If you have other needs and are still chasing a fantasy championship, feel free to drop Bryant in single-year formats.

Friday, September 02

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers (mouth) is back at second base and is hitting second on Friday against the Cincinnati Reds and right-hander Luis Cessa. Rodgers didn't play on Thursday after undergoing a root canal earlier in the day, but he'll return to the lineup on Friday. The 26-year-old finished up the month of August hitting .271 (29-for-107) with two home runs, 11 RBI and 13 runs scored in 27 games played. Overall, Rodgers is hitting .276/.327/.420 with 11 long balls, 60 RBI and 62 runs scored in 510 plate appearances over 118 games. Get Rodgers back into your fantasy lineups in deeper leagues.

Thursday, September 01

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers (mouth) is not in the starting lineup against the Atlanta Braves on Thursday after undergoing a root canal in the morning. Manager Bud Black said he'll try to avoid using Rodgers off the bench on Thursday, but he intends to return him to the starting lineup on Friday. Rodgers said he will hit in the batting cages in case he's needed Thursday. With Rodgers on the bench, Ryan McMahon will get the nod at the keystone and hit leadoff against Braves right-hander Spencer Strider. Ten of McMahon's 13 home runs this season have come against right-handed hurlers, and he'll be more attractive in the leadoff spot in DFS, but Strider has been excellent for Atlanta this year. In his 301 at-bats against righties in 2022, McMahon has 77 hits (18 doubles), 41 RBI, 31 runs scored and six steals.

Tuesday, August 30

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Colorado Rockies are calling up first base prospect Michael Toglia from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday. The 23-year-old switch-hitter was the team's top draft pick from 2019, and he was hitting a combined .249/.341/.511 with an .852 OPS, 30 home runs, 83 RBI, 74 runs scored and seven stolen bases in 114 games with Double-A Hartford and Albuquerque before his call-up. In 17 games for Albuquerque, he hit .333 (22-for-66) with seven long balls, 17 RBI and 11 runs scored. Toglia, the team's No. 14 prospect per MLB Pipeline, should play regularly between first base and designated hitter in Colorado, making him an attractive waiver-wire pickup, at least in deeper fantasy leagues.

Thursday, August 25

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Colorado Rockies reinstated right-hander Chad Kuhl (hip) from the 15-day injured list on Thursday and designated right-hander Robert Stephenson for assignment in a corresponding move. Kuhl is expected to rejoin the starting rotation to pitch against the New York Mets on Friday night. The 29-year-old missed three weeks due to a right hip strain, and he'll be extremely risky in fantasy lineups in his first start back against the Mets. He made one minor league rehab start for Triple-A Albuquerque on Aug. 20 and tossed five scoreless innings while striking out six. In 20 starts for the Rockies this year, Kuhl is 6-7 with a 5.16 ERA (5.22 FIP), a 1.52 WHIP and a 76:46 K:BB in 103 innings pitched.

Wednesday, August 24

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant (foot) received a platelet-rich plasma injection to help with the plantar fasciitis in his left foot, and the Rockies will have another update on him in seven to 10 days. Bryant has been on the shelf since early August, is in a walking boot and has yet to resume baseball activities. With the regular season winding to a close in just over a month, there's a chance that the 30-year-old won't be back with the Rockies again in 2022. Bryant has been good when on the field, hitting .306/.376/.475 with an .851 OPS, five home runs, 14 RBI and 28 runs scored in 160 at-bats, but he just hasn't been able to stay healthy in his first year in Colorado.

Tuesday, August 23

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies outfielder/third baseman Kris Bryant (foot) is still in a walking boot and isn't doing baseball activities. The Rockies still haven't said whether it's possible that he'll return this year, but there are only 39 games left and he'd likely need to go on a minor league rehab assignment before returning to the big-league lineup. It's looking less and less likely that Bryant will play again in 2022. The 30-year-old slugger is dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot and hasn't played in a game since July 31. He has just 160 at-bats in his first year in Colorado, hitting .306/.376/.475 with an .851 OPS, five home runs, 14 RBI and 28 runs scored. Bryant has been good when on the field, but he may not get there again this year.

Sunday, August 21

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies catcher Elias Diaz (hand) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Sunday. The 31-year-old backstop hit the IL back on August 11 with ligament damage in his right hand. It was a minimum stay on the injured list for Diaz who's slashing .230/.294/.371 with six home runs and 33 RBI across 256 at-bats for the Rockies this year. Brian Serven is starting behind the plate on Sunday for Colorado but Diaz should start rotating back into the lineup as early as Tuesday vs. the Texas Rangers.
		Colorado Rockies catcher Dom Nunez has been optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday. Colorado needed to clear a space on the roster following Elias Diaz's (hand) activation from the 10-day injured list. Nunez is slashing just .121/.244/.152 across 33 at-bats in the majors this season. Diaz and Brian Serven will split duties behind the plate for the Rockies the rest of the way.

Friday, August 19

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Antonio Senzatela (knee) tore his left ACL when he was forced to exit his start early on Thursday against the St. Louis Cardinals. Senzatela was officially placed on the injured list on Friday and will miss the rest of the season. There's also a good chance that the 27-year-old right-hander won't be ready for the start of the 2023 regular season. He'll finish his 2022 campaign with a 3-7 record, a 5.07 ERA (4.06 FIP), a 1.69 WHIP and an underwhelming 54:23 K:BB in 92 1/3 innings pitched over his 19 starts. Senzatela wasn't much of a fantasy option in mixed leagues and can now safely be dropped by anyone that still had him rostered in deeper formats.

Thursday, August 18

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon isn't expected to land on the injured list after exiting Thursday's game with a hamstring issue. Manager Bud Black told Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post that the veteran will be okay in a couple of days. This comment casts doubt on Blackmon's availability for Friday, but he could be back in the lineup as soon as this coming weekend. The 34-year-old went 1-for-1 with a single on Thursday and has now logged a base hit in six of his last seven games. Expect Connor Joe to fill Blackmon's spot in the lineup for the duration of his absence.
