Requires surgery Owings (thumb) will require a surgical procedure, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

The utility man will be out until at least June and will need at least eight weeks to recover, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports. Prior to the injury, Owings went 8-for-15 with six extra-base hits, three RBI and two stolen bases in seven games.

Shifts to 60-day IL The Rockies transferred Owings (thumb) to the 60-day injured list Sunday.
Impact Owings was diagnosed with a sprained left thumb at the time he was placed on the 10-day IL on April 10, but the injury was apparently more severe than the club initially anticipated. He'll now be shut down until June as a result of the injury, making it tough to justify holding on to the 29-year-old utility man outside of NL-only leagues. Owings was off to a hot start prior to suffering the injury, as he produced six extra-base hits (three triples, three doubles) to go with two stolen bases in his first 17 plate appearances.

X-rays negative on thumb Rockies manager Bud Black said Sunday that X-rays on Owings' sprained left thumb returned negative, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Owings' thumb injury was still significant enough for him to land on the 10-day injured list Saturday, but the Rockies are seemingly hopeful he'll avoid a lengthy absence. Black said that Owings will still receive a precautionary MRI next weekend when the Rockies return to Denver.

Lands on 10-day IL Owings was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left thumb sprain Saturday.
Impact Owings has been dealing with a tight hamstring recently, but he's now also managing a thumb injury that will force him to miss at least 10 days. It's not yet clear when Owings will be able to return to action, but Alan Trejo's contract was selected by the Rockies in a corresponding move. Trejo will serve as a bench option with Owings and Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) sidelined.

Still receiving treatment Owings is still dealing with hamstring tightness Saturday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Owings lined a triple as a pinch hitter in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Giants, but manager Bud Black revealed Saturday that the 29-year-old is still receiving treatment for a tight hamstring. The team continues to monitor Owings' progress closely, and he should be considered day-to-day.

Lines triple as pinch hitter Owings (hamstring) hit a triple and scored a run in his only at-bat as a pinch hitter in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Giants.
Impact Owings entered the game in the ninth inning for pitcher Jordan Sheffield. The 29-year-old Owings hit a triple and came around to score on Garrett Hampson's sacrifice fly for the Rockies' lone run of the game. The hamstring isn't expected to keep Owings out of the starting lineup for long. He'll be welcomed back, as he has a .533/.588/1.133 slash line across 17 plate appearances. He's produced six runs scored, three RBI, two stolen bases, three triples and three doubles.

Not starting Thursday Owings (hamstring) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against Arizona.
Impact Owings had started four of the first six games of the season, but he exited Wednesday's win over the Diamondbacks due to right hamstring tightness. He's receiving treatment Thursday, and manager Bud Black is optimistic that Owings' injury is a short-term issue, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.

Leaves with tight hamstring Rockies manager Bud Black clarified that Owings was removed from Wednesday's 8-0 win over the Diamondbacks due to right hamstring tightness, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post rep...
Impact The club initially announced that Owings was lifted for Sam Hilliard in the top of the sixth inning due to right leg soreness, but Black provided more information about the utility man's injury after the contest. Black was careful to note that Owings isn't dealing with a strain, so his early exit is being labeled precautionary. Before departing, Owings went 3-for-3 with a triple, two doubles, two RBI and a run, strengthening his case for continuing to receive steady at-bats moving forward. Owings has started in four of the Rockies' first six games.
