Cole Carrigg Cole Carrigg Tallies second steal
Sun, Jun 28, 2026, 10:39 PM
Carrigg went 2-for-3 with a double and a stolen base in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Twins.
Analysis: Carrigg recorded the Rockies' lone extra-base hit of the day, ripping a double in the eighth inning as part of a multi-hit effort. Known for his blazing speed, the center fielder also stole second base after reaching on a fielder's choice in the first frame, marking the rookie's second stolen base in three attempts. Since being called up June 9, Carrigg is slashing .268/.382/.518 with three homers, three doubles, a triple, 11 RBI and 11 runs scored across 17 games. |

Ryan Feltner Ryan Feltner Logs six innings in no-decision
Sun, Jun 28, 2026, 10:11 PM
Feltner did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and no walks over six innings against Minnesota. He did not record a strikeout.
Analysis: Feltner limited damage, with his lone earned run coming on a Kody Clemens solo homer in the fourth inning, though the right-hander failed to record a strikeout in an outing for the first time since 2023. With June winding down, Feltner will finish the month with a 4.00 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 16:12 K:BB across five starts spanning 27 innings. The 29-year-old will take a 2-2 record with a 4.42 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 35:20 K:BB across 53 innings (11 starts) into his next outing, tentatively lined up for next weekend against San Francisco. |

Tanner Gordon Tanner Gordon Looks sharp in short rehab outing
Sun, Jun 28, 2026, 8:49 PM
Gordon (hip) struck out four batters while allowing one hit and no walks over four scoreless innings in a rehab start Wednesday with Triple-A Albuquerque.
Analysis: Gordon breezed through the rehab start, his first game action since landing on the 15-day injured list June 5 due to a right hip impingement. He retired 12 of the 13 batters he faced, needing just 38 pitches (30 strikes) to cover four innings. Gordon will likely need to push his pitch count into the 60-to-75 range before potentially re-entering the Colorado rotation, so he'll presumably require one or two more minor-league rehab starts prior to being activated. |

Jordan Beck Jordan Beck Activated and optioned
Sun, Jun 28, 2026, 1:49 PM
The Rockies reinstated Beck (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Albuquerque.
Analysis: Beck is healthy again after completing a five-game rehab assignment at Albuquerque, but with no room for him in their crowded outfield, the Rockies will keep the 25-year-old in the minors. Before being shelved May 18 due to a left hamstring strain, Beck contributed a .183/.227/.305 slash line with one home run and two stolen bases over 88 plate appearances while mostly serving as a short-side platoon player. |

Jake McCarthy Jake McCarthy Taking seat Sunday
Sun, Jun 28, 2026, 1:46 PM
McCarthy is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
Analysis: After producing a 1.065 OPS in 11 games since returning to the lineup June 15 following a bout with an illness, McCarthy will get a well-deserved afternoon off. The left-handed-hitting outfielder will duck out of the starting nine while the Twins send a lefty (Connor Prielipp) to the bump for the series finale. |

Hunter Goodman Hunter Goodman Crushes three homers in win
Sat, Jun 27, 2026, 11:28 PM
Goodman went 3-for-5 with three home runs and five RBI in an 8-5 victory against Minnesota on Saturday.
Analysis: Goodman was a force to be reckoned with in the win, producing the first three-homer game of his career. None of the long balls were cheap shots -- each was estimated at over 400 feet. Goodman has racked up four homers and eight RBI over his past two games, and he now leads all MLB catchers with 25 home runs on the season. The Rockies record for homers in a campaign is 49 (set by Larry Walker in 1997 and Todd Helton in 2002), and given that the team is only 83 games into the current season, Goodman has a legitimate chance of challenging that franchise mark. |

Cole Carrigg Cole Carrigg Idle Saturday
Sat, Jun 27, 2026, 3:27 PM
Carrigg is not in the lineup for Saturday's matchup against Minnesota.
Analysis: After going 0-for-4 with a walk, strikeout and a run scored in the series opener against Minnesota Friday, Carrigg will ride the bench Saturday. Jake McCarthy will take over in center field and lead off for Colorado. |
|
Ezequiel Tovar Ezequiel Tovar Sitting Saturday
Sat, Jun 27, 2026, 3:25 PM
Tovar isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Minnesota.
Analysis: Tovar will catch a breather after going 2-for-15 at the plate across his last four starts. Willi Castro will slide over to shortstop as a result, giving Kyle Karros a start at the hot corner. |
|
Edouard Julien Edouard Julien Riding pine Saturday
Sat, Jun 27, 2026, 3:22 PM
Julien isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Minnesota.
Analysis: Julien will grab a seat on the bench Saturday after going 1-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and two runs scored during Friday's series opener. Tyler Freeman will shift to second base while Julien sits, opening up right field for Troy Johnston. |

Antonio Senzatela Antonio Senzatela Blows fourth save
Sat, Jun 27, 2026, 2:41 AM
Senzatela blew the save Friday against Minnesota, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out one during the ninth inning.
Analysis: The Rockies rallied for seven runs across the eighth and ninth innings to set up the save opportunity, but Senzatela was unable to maintain the one-run advantage. After a dominant start to the campaign that saw him give up just four earned runs over his first 32 innings, the veteran right-hander has posted a 5.56 ERA while blowing all four of his save chances in his past nine outings, though he's also picked up four wins during that span. Jimmy Herget, who secured a save Wednesday versus Boston, took the loss after giving up the game-winning run in the bottom of the 10th, so Senzatela should remain in the closer mix for now. |

Kyle Karros Kyle Karros Reps versus righties slipping
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 1:43 PM
Karros is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Minnesota.
Analysis: Karros has now been out of the lineup three of the last four times the Rockies have gone up against a right-hander. Colorado will shift Willi Castro over to third base once again, with Edouard Julien covering second base. |
|
Tyler Freeman Tyler Freeman Absent from lineup
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 1:39 PM
Freeman is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Minnesota.
Analysis: After starting each of the previous four contests in right field, Freeman will take a seat for Friday's series opener versus the Twins. The Rockies will go with Mickey Moniak, Cole Carrigg and Jake McCarthy in the outfield and Troy Johnston at designated hitter. |

Sammy Peralta Sammy Peralta Outrighted to Triple-A
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 8:47 AM
The Rockies outrighted Peralta to Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.
Analysis: Peralta was removed from the 40-man roster earlier this week and subsequently passed through waivers. Since he'd been outrighted previously, the southpaw has the ability to elect free agency. Peralta has yielded three earned runs over 2.2 frames during his brief time in the majors this season. |

Jimmy Herget Jimmy Herget Locks down second save
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 9:42 PM
Herget secured the save Wednesday against the Red Sox, throwing a clean ninth inning. He struck out two.
Analysis: It didn't seem initially like the Rockies would have a save opportunity Wednesday, but Coloroado turned a 6-3 deficit into an 8-6 advantage across the seventh and eighth innings. The rally opened the door for Herget to nail down his second save of the season, and it's worth noting the hurler worked behind Antonio Senzatela. Through 19.1 innings, Herget has a 4.19 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 23:5 K:BB with four holds. |

Kyle Freeland Kyle Freeland Thrashed in no-decision
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 9:23 PM
Freeland took a no-decision Wednesday against the Red Sox, allowing six runs on 11 hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out four.
Analysis: Freeland was hit hard Wednesday, giving up a staggering eight extra-base hits (two home runs). The 33-year-old southpaw has been knocked around for double-digit hits three times already this year, and he's now surrendered at least six runs on six occasions as well. Freeland has a disastrous 7.50 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 61:17 K:BB across 72 innings, making him a mostly unappealing fantasy option for his next scheduled start at home versus the Marlins. |

Jaden Hill Jaden Hill Shelved by shoulder tendinitis
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 12:13 PM
The Rockies placed Hill on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with right shoulder tendinitis.
Analysis: It's unclear how long Hill's shoulder has been bothering him. He's notched saves in two of his last three outings but has had a rough June overall, allowing nine runs with a 5:8 K:BB over six innings covering nine appearances. Hill will be eligible for activation in early July, but with the nature of the injury, he could require additional down time. |

Seth Halvorsen Seth Halvorsen Back up in big leagues
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 12:13 PM
The Rockies recalled Halvorsen from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday.
Analysis: Colorado sent Halvorsen back to Triple-A on June 17, but he'll be eligible to rejoin the big club a week later after right-hander Jaden Hill (shoulder) was moved to the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. The Rockies will likely limit Halvorsen to lower-leverage spots during his upcoming stint in the big leagues; the reliever has posted a 3.31 ERA in 16.1 innings with Colorado this season but has walked nearly as many batters (14) as he's struck out (16). |

Mickey Moniak Mickey Moniak Idle against southpaw
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 11:35 AM
Moniak is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Analysis: Moniak will sit for the second time in the series following his activation from the injured list Monday, with both of his absences coming against left-handed pitching. While picking up his first start for the Rockies since May 20 in Tuesday's 5-2 loss, Moniak went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. |
|
Edouard Julien Edouard Julien Idle for series finale
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 11:32 AM
Julien is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Analysis: Julien will join fellow left-handed hitters Mickey Moniak, Troy Johnston and Brett Sullivan on the bench while the Red Sox send southpaw Ranger Suarez to the bump for the series finale. Though he had started in all but one of the Rockies' matchups with right-handed pitchers dating back to May 26, Julien's opportunities could be harder to come by now that Moniak is back in the fold following a month-long stint on the injured list. |

Chase Dollander Chase Dollander Undergoes surgery
Tue, Jun 23, 2026, 5:03 PM
Dollander underwent an internal brace procedure on his right elbow Monday, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.
Analysis: Although Dollander managed to avoid undergoing a full Tommy John procedure, the operation will still put an early end to his second MLB season. He showed significant improvement in 2026, turning in a 3.89 ERA and 1.30 WHIP alongside a 47:18 K:BB in 44 innings across 10 appearances (three starts). A clearer timeline for his return could emerge as the 2027 campaign approaches. |
