Brendan Rodgers Activated From The Injured List
4 years agoColorado Rockies' second baseman Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) has been activated from the 10-day injured list and is starting on Friday vs. the Arizona Diamondbacks. This was an expected move as Rodgers had been trending towards activation this weekend. Alan Trejo was optioned in a corresponding move. Rodgers played well in his rehab games at Triple-A Albuquerque and is starting at second base while batting sixth against Seth Frankoff on Friday. Josh Fuentes is getting the day off and Ryan McMahon has moved over to cover third base. We'll see how playing time shakes out for the Rockies but Rodgers is a name to keep an eye on. He's got a disappointing .196/.235/.227 batting line over 97 career at-bats but he was seeing the ball well in Spring Training before sustaining his hamstring injury.
