Returning to Triple-A The Rockies optioned Fulford to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.
Impact Fulford was recalled to the Rockies on Saturday to take the spot on the active roster vacated by Aaron Schunk (groin), but the former will return to Triple-A after the Rockies selected Alan Trejo's contract from Albuquerque. Fulford has a 1.345 OPS across 44 plate appearances in Triple-A and could return to the majors if Hunter Goodman or Jacob Stallings are sidelined for an extended period of time.

Back in majors Fulford was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday.
Impact He was optioned just Friday, but was quickly added back to the active roster after Aaron Schunk (groin strain) landed on the injured list. This will free up Hunter Goodman for more work at designated hitter in the short term. Fulford has one home run and five strikeouts in eight MLB plate appearances.

Optioned to Triple-A The Rockies optioned Fulford to Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.
Impact Fulford was promoted to the majors April 14 and smacked his first big-league home run this past Sunday against the Nationals. He appeared in four games (two starts) for the Rockies as the third catcher behind Hunter Goodman and Jacob Stallings. Colorado selected Owen Miller's contract from Albuquerque in a corresponding move.

Tallies first big-league homer Fulford went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Nationals.
Impact Fulford drew his second start since being recalled Wednesday and hit ninth in the order. He went yard to lead off the sixth inning, accounting for his first big-league hit and homer. Fulford should continue to get looks as the backup catcher so long as Kris Bryant (back) is sidelined, which allows Hunter Goodman to serve as the designated hitter.

Recalled by Colorado The Rockies recalled Fulford from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
Impact The move comes with Kris Bryant (back) being placed on the 10-day IL. Fulford started the Triple-A season strong, slashing .395/.477/.868 with 10 runs scored, five home runs and 10 RBI across 44 plate appearances. He's is the third catcher on the Rockies' 26-man roster behind Hunter Goodman and Jacob Stallings. Goodman could see more time as the designated hitter following Bryant's placement on the IL, which would open the door for Fulford to make his major-league debut behind home plate if Stallings were to be given a rest day.
