Edouard Julien - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

On bench to open Wednesday's game Julien is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

Impact Julien was included in the lineup for the first two games of the series and went 1-for-6 with a double and a run scored, but he'll take a seat to begin Wednesday's contest while southpaw Kyle Hart opens the game for the Padres. The Rockies could summon the left-handed-hitting Julien from the bench at some point during the contest once Hart exits and right-hander Griffin Canning takes over in bulk relief.

Losing hold of platoon role Julien will start at second base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

Impact The left-handed-hitting Julien will draw his first start of the series after sitting Monday and Tuesday while the Nationals sent lefty starters to the hill for both contests. Julien is batting just .148/.258/.296 thus far in July, and he no longer appears to have a firm grasp on a strong-side platoon role after the Rockies held him out of the lineup against right-handed starters in the final game before the All-Star break and in the first game of the second half.

Out of lineup against righty Julien is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Reds.

JULY 17 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting against righty Julien is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact The Rockies have regularly shielded the left-handed-hitting Julien from southpaws this season, but he'll take a seat against a righty starter (Trevor McDonald) in the final game before the All-Star break. Tyler Freeman will get the nod at second base in place of Julien, who is slashing .228/.335/.321 (75 wRC+) over 224 plate appearances versus righties on the campaign.

Pops solo shot Julien went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact Julien has gone just 3-for-14 over five games in July. The second baseman is handling a strong-side platoon role, though he often gets replaced if a left-handed reliever enters the game. Julien is batting .228 with a .656 OPS, three homers, 20 RBI, 33 runs scored and four stolen bases over 241 plate appearances this season.

JULY 7 • Associated Press

Heading to bench versus lefty Julien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact Though he'll head to the bench for the second time in three games while the Rockies face off against another lefty starter (Eric Lauer), the left-handed-hitting Julien appears to have earned himself a regular spot in the lineup versus righties. Over his last six games, Julien has reached base at a .481 clip while recording five hits, eight walks and nine runs and two RBI.

JULY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Heading to bench Wednesday Julien is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Julien has been a fixture in the lineup against right-handed pitching lately, but he'll cede second base to Willi Castro on Wednesday while Miami sends right-hander Max Meyer to the bump. Julien has generated a modest .646 OPS on the season, but he picked up his production in June, finishing the month with a .288./422/.365 slash line over 22 games.

JULY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Riding pine Saturday Julien isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Minnesota.

Impact Julien will grab a seat on the bench Saturday after going 1-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and two runs scored during Friday's series opener. Tyler Freeman will shift to second base while Julien sits, opening up right field for Troy Johnston.

JUNE 27 • ROTOWIRE

Idle for series finale Julien is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact Julien will join fellow left-handed hitters Mickey Moniak, Troy Johnston and Brett Sullivan on the bench while the Red Sox send southpaw Ranger Suarez to the bump for the series finale. Though he had started in all but one of the Rockies' matchups with right-handed pitchers dating back to May 26, Julien's opportunities could be harder to come by now that Moniak is back in the fold following a month-long stint on the injured list.

JUNE 24 • ROTOWIRE

On bench against lefty Julien is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Impact The left-handed-hitting Julien will retreat to the bench with southpaw Jeffrey Springs toeing the rubber for the Athletics. Julien has been included in the lineup for every matchup with a right-handed starter so far in June and is slashing .333/.419/.407 so far this month, but it's unclear if he'll be able to hold down a strong-side platoon role after Colorado reinstated Tyler Freeman (concussion) from the 7-day injured list Sunday.

JUNE 14 • ROTOWIRE

Knocks in three Julien went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI and a run scored Tuesday against the Cubs.

Impact Julien has been in the lineup for most matchups against righties across the last two weeks and in nine of Colorado's last 11 games. He's gone 8-for-26 with five RBI and six runs scored in that span. In Tuesday's win, Julien delivered an RBI double in the second inning and knocked in two with a single one frame later.

JUNE 3 • Associated Press

Two straight starts Julien went 1-for-4 with a stolen base Friday against the Giants.

Impact Julien had slipped into a reserve role in the last week, but he started his second consecutive game Friday. He helped the Rockies take a 1-0 lead in the second inning, reaching base on a single, then executing a double steal with Ezequiel Tovar. Julien is hitting only .204 across 155 plate appearances, and his playing time will likely slip further once Mickey Moniak (ankle) is able to return.

Remaining on bench Julien isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Arizona.

Impact Julien's recent 0-for-25 stretch at the plate will now cause him to sit on the bench for a third consecutive game. His absence from the lineup will allow Chad Stevens to start at second base, batting eighth.

MAY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Taking seat Friday Julien isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against Arizona.

Impact Julien will miss out on the starting nine for a second consecutive game after going 0-for-25 with nine strikeouts across his last nine games. Willi Castro will draw the start at second base, and Sterlin Thomas will work as Colorado's designated hitter.

MAY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Not in lineup versus southpaw Julien is not in the starting lineup Thursday against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Julien will head to the bench as the Rockies get set to face left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez on the mound. Julien is in the middle of an 0-for-25 stretch at the plate over his last nine contests, so a night off will hopefully allow him to hit the reset button. Braxton Fulford will draw the start at designated hitter and bat seventh in the series opener versus Arizona.

MAY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Moving to bench versus lefty Julien is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Impact With southpaw Cristopher Sanchez on the bump for Philadelphia, the Rockies will stock up on some extra right-handed bats while Julien joins fellow left-handed hitters TJ Rumfield, Troy Johnston and Brett Sullivan on the bench. Tyler Freeman will receive the nod at second base in place of Julien.

MAY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Taking seat Monday Julien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

Impact Right-hander Huascar Brazoban is opening the game for the Mets, but the left-handed-hitting Julien will hit the bench to begin Monday's contest since New York will be using a lefty (David Peterson) in bulk relief. With Julien taking a seat, Tyler Freeman will occupy the designated-hitter spot and Willi Castro will start at second bas.

Impact After starting each of the past three games, the left-handed-hitting Julien will hit the bench while the Reds send a southpaw (Brandon Williamson) to the bump. With Julien taking a seat, Willi Castro (knee) will cover second base in his return to the lineup, and Hunter Goodman will serve as the Rockies' designated hitter while Brett Sullivan draws a start behind the dish.
