INJURIES

Gets Monday off Tovar is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Tovar secured the Rockies' everyday shortstop job coming out of spring training and started in all four games of the team's season-opening series in San Diego, going 2-for-15 with no walks and six strikeouts in those contests. Despite Tovar's underwhelming series against the Padres, he should still have a decent amount of leash in a regular role. Alan Trejo will spell Tovar in Monday's contest, however.

Expected to start at shortstop Tovar is expected to serve as the Rockies' everyday shortstop in 2023, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Impact Tovar was promoted aggressively in 2022 and earned 35 plate appearances in the majors to close the season. His surface stats weren't good in that span, and Tovar also hasn't had a particularly compelling performance this spring by collecting only seven hits -- two for extra bases -- across 31 at-bats. Nevertheless, the Rockies appear committed to giving their top prospect time to learn on the job, and he should be in line for plenty of plate appearances as a result.

Swats first big-league homer Tovar went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Dodgers on Wednesday.
Impact Tovar's first major-league long ball was a memorable one, as it came off future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw. The 405-foot solo shot accounted for Colorado's only run of the game and was one of the team's two hits. Tovar slashed just .212/.257/.333 over nine contests in his first major-league cup of tea, but he batted .319 with 14 homers and 17 stolen bases in the minors this season and figures to be a big part of the Rockies' future plans.

On bench Tuesday Tovar isn't starting Tuesday against the Dodgers.
Impact The young shortstop's major-league career has gotten off to a slow start, as he has just a .483 OPS through his first eight games. Tovar will take a seat Tuesday, which moves Jose Iglesias to start at shortstop, C.J. Cron over to designated hitter, Michael Toglia to first base, Randal Grichuk to right field and Garrett Hampson into the lineup to start in center field.
OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Gets breather Saturday Tovar isn't in the lineup Saturday against the Dodgers.
Impact Tovar is on the bench for the second time in the last four games after he went 1-for-8 with a double over the last two matchups. Jose Iglesias will start at shortstop and bat second.
OCTOBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
First career extra-base hit Tovar went 1-for-4 with a double Thursday against the Giants.
Impact Tovar doubled deep to left field to lead off the sixth inning, though he was ultimately stranded there. It was the first extra-base hit of his career, but he does have five knocks across his first 18 at-bats.
SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Steps out of lineup Tovar is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
Impact The 21-year-old started the past four games after he was promoted from Triple-A Albuquerque last week, and he'll take a seat with Jose Iglesias (thumb) back from the injured list. Tovar should still see plenty of playing time over the final week of the season, and he's 4-for-14 with two walks and a run scored through his first four big-league contests.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Two hits in debut Tovar went 2-for-4 with a run scored Friday against the Padres.
Impact Tovar made his big-league debut Friday and hit eighth while playing shortstop. He collected singles in each of his first two plate appearances and also came around to score in the fourth inning. Tovar should continue to have a clear path to playing time with Jose Iglesias (thumb) and Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) both sidelined.

Batting eighth in MLB debut Tovar will start at shortstop and bat eighth Friday against the Padres, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Impact The 21-year-old was added to Colorado's active roster Thursday and will make his big-league debut a day later. Tovar posted a .921 OPS with 14 home runs and 17 stolen bases in 71 games between the Double-A and Triple-A levels this season, and he should see regular playing time down the stretch as the Rockies take a look at their top prospect.

Active, not in Thursday's lineup Tovar was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.
Impact He is not in Thursday's lineup, but he could be available off the bench. Tovar should play pretty regularly, as the Rockies view him as the shortstop of the future. He hit .316/.384/.537 with 14 home runs and 17 steals in 71 games between Double-A and Triple-A.
SEPTEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Not yet active Tovar, who is expected to join the Rockies on Thursday, is not in the lineup against the Giants, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact It's not unusual for a prospect to watch his first big-league game from the bench, and in this case, Tovar isn't even on the lineup card yet. His official activation may come Friday. Once active, Tovar should play pretty regularly, as the Rockies view him as the shortstop of the future. He hit .316/.384/.537 with 14 home runs and 17 steals in 71 games between Double-A and Triple-A.
SEPTEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Promotion coming Thursday Tovar is expected to be called up from Triple-A Albuquerque to play in Thursday's series finale against the Giants, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact The 21-year-old spent the first half of the season with Double-A Hartford before he landed on the injured list with a groin injury in late June, and he was promoted to Albuquerque last week after he completed a rehab assignment. Tovar went 5-for-17 with a home run and two RBI in his first four games at Triple-A, and he posted a .314/.383/.542 slash line with 13 long balls, 47 RBI and 17 stolen bases in 66 contests at Double-A. He is Colorado's top prospect and should receive regular opportunities down the stretch in his first taste of the majors.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2022 • DENVERPOST.COM
Could debut this year The Rockies hope to get Tovar some experience in the majors before the end of the season, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Impact The aggressive promotions for Tovar may not be at an end, as he just made his Triple-A debut earlier this week and played 66 games at Double-A as a 20-year-old earlier this season. Every move the Rockies have made with Tovar suggests that they plan on him being the primary big-league shortstop for most, if not all of the 2023 season. He is hitting .313/.381/.537 with 13 home runs and 17 steals in 67 games.
SEPTEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Begins rehab assignment Tovar (hip/groin) will head to Arizona on Sunday to begin a rehab assignment, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.
Impact The talented shortstop has not played since June 29 due to a hip/groin injury. According to Allentuck, Tovar will complete his rehab assignment and will then be moved up to Triple-A Albuquerque for the final games of the season. The 21-year-old hit .318/.386/.545 with 13 home runs and 17 steals in 66 games at Double-A.
AUGUST 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Not available for Futures Game Tovar (groin) won't be available for Saturday's All-Star Futures Game, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.
Impact The Rockies' top prospect remains on Double-A Hartford's 7-day injured list while he continues to recover from a groin injury that has kept him out of action since June 29. The organization is hopeful the 20-year-old infielder will be ready to play again shortly after the All-Star break.
JULY 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Nursing groin injury Rockies general manager Bill Schmidt said Sunday that Tovar has played just one game during Double-A Hartford's homestand this week on account of a groin injury, Patrick Lyons of T...
Impact Schmidt downplayed the groin issue, indicating that the Rockies are granting the 20-year-old infielder some extra rest as a matter of precaution to ensure the injury doesn't evolve into a longer-term concern. Tovar has backed up his status as one of the Rockies' top prospects this season by slashing .314/.383/.542 with 29 extra-base hits and 17 stolen bases across 295 plate appearances at Hartford this season.
JULY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Wrecking Double-A competition Tovar is hitting .320/.403/.587 with 10 homers, 16 steals and a 20:41 BB:K through 43 games for Double-A Hartford.
Impact The 20-year-old endured a rough 2021, but the Rockies started him off in Double-A this year anyhow, and he's been an absolute wrecking ball. He's only been caught stealing once all year, and he's presently in the midst of a 12-game hitting streak during which he's hit .400 with a 1.234 OPS. It's hard to find any flaws in Tovar's game -- he's already considered a big-league-ready shortstop defensively, and now that he's hitting like this despite being one of the youngest players in Double-A, his prospect star is rising quickly.
JUNE 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Hot start at Double-A Tovar is hitting .304/.396/.609 with three home runs and three stolen bases across 52 plate appearances at Double-A Hartford.
Impact Tovar spent the early part of spring training with the big-league club, and he has begun the 2022 regular season with Double-A Hartford. He delivered a multi-homer performance April 22, which inflated his overall numbers given the small sample. However, Tovar hasn't looked out of place at his current assignment, as he also has five doubles while striking out at a 25 percent clip.
