  • Gleyber Torres exits Thursday with groin tightness
    Gleyber Torres was removed from Thursday’s game against the Orioles with right groin tightness.

    Advice: Torres was 1-for-2 with a solo homer before leaving the contest after five innings with New York trailing 11-5 at the time. It sounds like his early exit was merely for precautionary reasons, but that’s purely speculation at this juncture. There should be an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Today, 3:23 pm

  • Suffers oblique strain
    Manager Bud Black said Amador was removed from Thursday's game against the Dodgers due to a "mild oblique strain," Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Advice: Amador appeared to be wincing after his at-bat in the seventh inning and was replaced in the field before the eighth frame. The 21-year-old suffered a similar injury earlier in the season while with Double-A Hartford, and it remains to be seen whether he'll require a trip to the injured list. Rotowire.com Today, 3:12 pm

  • Fernando Tatis Jr. in lineup Thursday vs. Brewers
    Fernando Tatis Jr. is in the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Brewers.

    Advice: Tatis got a day off earlier this week to address a lingering quad issue that he’s been playing through for the last few weeks. It’s possible the nagging issue has impacted his performance recently as he’s batting .130 (3-for-23) over his last seven games. Rotoworld Today, 3:00 pm
     
  • Timeline pushed back
    The Rockies adjusted Beck's recovery timeline for his surgically repaired left hand from 4-to-6 weeks to 6-to-8 weeks, MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Beck underwent surgery May 29 to insert a plate into his fractured left hand, so based on the updated timeline, he appears likely to remain sidelined through the All-Star break. Nolan Jones has since beaten him back from the IL, so Beck may not have an everyday role in the Colorado outfield waiting for him once he's activated and could be optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque.

  • Resumes jogging
    The Rockies cleared Diaz (calf) to resume jogging Monday, MLB.com reports.

    Advice: While Diaz looks to be making some progress in his recovery from the left calf strain that forced him to the injured list last Friday, he's still on track to spend more than the minimum 10 days on the shelf. The Rockies haven't yet provided a target date for Diaz's return from the IL, and Jacob Stallings should serve as Colorado's top backstop until Diaz is back in action. Rotowire.com Today, 2:16 pm

  • Alex Bregman collects three hits against White Sox
    Alex Bregman went 3-for-5 in a win over the White Sox on Thursday.

    Advice: All three hits for Bregman were singles. He also scored a run, and continues to look considerably better at the plate in the month of June. The 30-year-old entered the month with a .662 OPS, but he’s hit .322/.394/.492 since. That’ll play. Rotoworld Today, 2:04 pm
