Fri, Jun 6, 2025, 3:51 PM
Arcia is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.
Analysis: Arcia had made four consecutive starts, two at shortstop, one at third base and one at second base. However, he'll get a breather Friday as Ryan Ritter makes his MLB debut and plays shortstop. |

Fri, Jun 6, 2025, 3:32 PM
The Rockies reinstated Agnos (personal) from the bereavement list Friday.
Analysis: Agnos has rejoined the team ahead of its three-game homestand against the Mets after going on the bereavement list earlier this week. The closer has logged a 1.50 ERA and a 0.83 WHIP in 18 innings this season. |

Antonio Senzatela Antonio Senzatela Following opener Friday
Fri, Jun 6, 2025, 3:11 PM
Senzatela will follow Ryan Rolison during Friday's game against the Mets, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: The Rockies are using an opener for the first time this season, giving the ball to Rolison for an inning or two before letting Senzatela step in as a bulk reliever. The change might be what Senzatela needs to get back on track, as he's taken seven consecutive losses. He's posted an 8.82 ERA and a 2.02 WHIP during that stretch. |

Ryan Rolison Ryan Rolison Working as opener Friday
Fri, Jun 6, 2025, 3:09 PM
Rolison will open Friday's game against the Mets, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Rolison will make his first big-league start Friday, but he'll likely only pitch an inning or two before handing the ball off to Antonio Senzatela. In seven appearances this season, Rolison has a 4.50 ERA spanning 10.0 innings. |

Braxton Fulford Braxton Fulford Called up to MLB
Fri, Jun 6, 2025, 3:04 PM
The Rockies recalled Fulford from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.
Analysis: Fulford will take over as Colorado's backup catcher after the Rockies released Jacob Stallings. Fulford made his MLB debut earlier this season and went 1-for-8 with a solo home run over four games. However, he's slashing .314/.393/.608 in 117 plate appearances with Albuquerque this season. |

Ezequiel Tovar Ezequiel Tovar Placed on IL
Fri, Jun 6, 2025, 2:57 PM
The Rockies placed Tovar (oblique) on the 10-day injured list Friday, retroactive to June 3.
Analysis: Tovar injured his left oblique Monday and hasn't appeared in a game since and will now require a stint on the injured list. The Rockies selected Ryan Ritter's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday to provide some depth at the shortstop position. Tovar is slashing .258/.301/.406 with three homers in 138 plate appearances this season. |

Thu, Jun 5, 2025, 12:30 PM
The Rockies optioned Chivilli to Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.
Analysis: Chivilli had just been recalled Tuesday and did not make an appearance during his most recent stint in the majors. The Rockies will announce a corresponding roster move prior to Friday's game versus the Mets. |

Tyler Kinley Tyler Kinley Notches second save
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 7:30 PM
Kinley struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Wednesday to record his second save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Marlins.
Analysis: With Zach Agnos on the bereavement list and Seth Halvorsen having pitched two straight days, the save opportunity fell to Kinley, and he breezed through Miami's 2-3-4 hitters on 15 pitches (nine strikes). Kinley did record 12 saves in 2024, but he's no better than third in the pecking order this year for the Rockies despite a 2.45 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 9:7 K:BB over his last 11 innings dating back to May 10. |

Kyle Freeland Kyle Freeland Finally gets into win column
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 7:24 PM
Freeland (1-8) picked up the win in Wednesday's 3-2 victory over the Marlins, allowing two runs (both unearned) on four hits over 6.1 innings. He struck out four without walking a batter.
Analysis: The lefty blanked Miami through six frames before an Orlando Arcia error in the seventh eventually led to a couple runs, but Freeland still left the mound with the lead -- and for once, the Rockies' bullpen didn't squander it. The quality start was his second straight and sixth of the season, and Freeland will take a 5.19 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 52:13 K:BB through 67.2 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home next week against the Giants. |

Sam Hilliard Sam Hilliard Sitting against righty again
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 9:06 AM
Hilliard is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
Analysis: After getting called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday, Hilliard was on the bench for the Rockies' loss to the Mets that day but started against right-handed pitchers in each of the ensuing three games. Hilliard recorded three hits and drew a walk over 12 plate appearances in those contests, but the Rockies aren't yet prepared to hand him a regular starting role quite yet. The 31-year-old finds himself on the bench for a second consecutive matchup with a right-hander (Cal Quantrill) in Wednesday's series finale. |

Keston Hiura Keston Hiura Getting third start in four games
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 9:02 AM
Hiura will start at first base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
Analysis: After being called up from Triple-A Albuquerque over the weekend, Hiura is now slated to get his third start in the Rockies' last four games. Hiura has gone 1-for-6 with a double and two runs since joining the Rockies and will likely need to continue hitting to solidify a spot in the everyday lineup. |
|
Jacob Stallings Jacob Stallings Picking up start in day game
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 8:58 AM
Stallings will start at catcher and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
Analysis: Stallings will crack the lineup for just the second time in eight games, with both starts coming in day games after night games. The veteran backstop will likely continue to see infrequent playing time while Hunter Goodman is entrenched as the Rockies' No. 1 catcher. |

Ryan Feltner Ryan Feltner Resumes throwing
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 8:39 AM
Feltner (back) resumed throwing Monday but is not ready for game action, MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Feltner suffered a setback and was scratched from a scheduled rehab outing May 27. It's a positive sign that he's been able to resume throwing since, but a return in late June appears to be the best-case scenario. |

Jordan Beck Jordan Beck Swipes eighth bag
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 8:35 AM
Beck went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a stolen base Tuesday against the Marlins.
Analysis: Beck had struggled across the Rockies' road trip, going just 2-for-23 in the first seven games. He broke that cold stretch with a strong performance Tuesday and recorded his first RBI since May 17. Beck also managed his eighth stolen base of the year, four of which have come in his last 20 games. |

Tyler Freeman Tyler Freeman Playing time ticking up
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 8:28 AM
Freeman went 3-for-4 with a run scored Tuesday against the Marlins.
Analysis: Freeman has started five of the last six games for the Rockies, four of which have come in right field. He's performed well with the opportunity, going 7-for-16 with one home run, four RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base. Colorado has rotated its outfield consistently this season, but Freeman seems to have a hold on a regular lineup spot for the time being. |

Hunter Goodman Hunter Goodman Goes deep again
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 8:28 AM
Goodman went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and a double in Tuesday's win over the Marlins.
Analysis: Goodman caught fire in Miami. His go-ahead, solo blast in the eighth inning Tuesday was his third home run in two games, leading the Rockies to their first series win of 2025. Shockingly, despite his home park being Coors Field, eight of Goodman's 10 home runs this year have come on the road. That's led to an impressive .908 road OPS and a disappointing .682 OPS at home. Goodman is slashing .277/.325/.477 with 23 extra-base hits and 35 RBI through 59 games this season. |

Seth Halvorsen Seth Halvorsen Picks up third save
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 8:20 AM
Halvorsen didn't allow a baserunner and earned the save with a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday against the Marlins.
Analysis: Zach Agnos (personal) had recorded two consecutive saves for the Rockies but is currently on the bereavement list. That set Halvorsen up for the save chance Tuesday, and he delivered his third save of the season. After a slow start to the year, Halvorsen has turned in five scoreless efforts in his last six appearances. |

Chase Dollander Chase Dollander Tosses three innings
Wed, Jun 4, 2025, 8:08 AM
Dollander did not factor into the decision during Tuesday's win over Miami. He allowed two runs on two hits and three walks while striking out one batter over three innings.
Analysis: Dollander delivered a pair of scoreless innings in his return from the injured list before stumbling in the third. He walked the first two batters in the frame and then gave up a pair of RBI singles. It was his first outing since May 18 and he threw just 28 of 59 pitches for strikes. The highly-touted rookie has struggled early in his MLB career with a 6.26 ERA and 39:21 K:BB across 41.2 innings. Dollander is lined up to face the Giants at home next week. |

Ezequiel Tovar Ezequiel Tovar Out until at least Friday
Tue, Jun 3, 2025, 3:44 PM
Tovar (oblique) will not return to the Rockies' lineup until at least Friday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Tovar tweaked his left oblique in Monday's game versus the Marlins and has been ruled out through the Rockies' off day Thursday. The shortstop will continue to be treated and evaluated over the next few days before a decision is made on whether he'll require a trip to the 10-day injured list. Orlando Arcia is filling in at shortstop for the Rockies on Tuesday. |

Ezequiel Tovar Ezequiel Tovar Not in Tuesday's lineup
Tue, Jun 3, 2025, 1:48 PM
Tovar (side) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Miami.
Analysis: Tovar had to depart Monday's contest due to discomfort in his left side. He was not placed on the 10-day injured list prior to Tuesday's game, which is certainly a good sign, but an eventual trip to the IL can't be ruled out. Orlando Arcia is at shortstop and batting sixth for the Rockies on Tuesday. |
