Rockies News
Kyle Freeland's injury woes deepen as he lands on the 15-day IL with shoulder inflammation, a significant blow to a Rockies team already struggling to find its footing at 6-11. The Rockies desperately need to stop their slide after a heartbreaking 6-7 loss to the Astros, extending their dismal record to 2-5 over the past week with a run differential of -5. Tonight, they'll look to rebound against Houston, sending veteran Jose Quintana (0-0, 4.15 ERA) to the mound against rookie Spencer Arrighetti in his Major League debut. With hot bats like Hunter Goodman (.254) and Mickey Moniak (.243) in the lineup, the Rockies have the firepower to generate runs, but their pitching struggles are becoming increasingly untenable without Freeland. It's a tense moment for the Rockies as they seek to regain their momentum and keep pace in the division.
