Colorado Rockies DVOA, Stats, & MLB Rankings

Colorado Rockies catcher Hunter Goodman went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple, one run scored, and one RBI in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Marlins. He has been on fire as of late, with six extra-base hits in his past three games and 13 at-bats. The 25-year-old is now slashing .281/.328/.491 with 10 home runs, 36 RBI, and 30 runs, making him the second most valuable catcher in standard 5x5 roto leagues behind only Cal Raleigh. While it's unlikely that he finishes the season as the second-best catcher, it's safe to say that he is a top-12 option at the position from here on out. The slugger started at DH and hit third in the lineup on Wednesday, which is an arrangement that has helped him accumulate the fourth-most plate appearances among all backstops.

Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar (oblique) is out of the lineup on Tuesday against the Miami marlins and will also be out in Wednesday's series finale with a left-oblique injury that he suffered in Monday night's win, according to MLB.com's Thomas Harding. The Rockies are off on Thursday, so Tovar's next chance to return to the lineup will be for Friday's series opener at Coors Field against the New York Mets. Colorado said they pulled the 23-year-old as a precaution from Monday's game with a left-side issue, but now that we know it's an oblique pull, it could very well end up landing him on the 10-day injured list. Veteran Orlando Arcia is starting at shortstop on Tuesday and could take over at the 6 if Tovar misses extended time. Tovar has been a disappointment for his fantasy managers through 128 at-bats, hitting .258 with only three home runs, 10 RBI, 14 runs scored and two stolen bases.

Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar (ribs) is absent from the team's starting lineup for Tuesday's contest in Miami against the Marlins. Orlando Arcia will take over at the 6 and bat sixth against Marlins right-hander Sandy Alcantara. Tovar was pulled from Monday's win over the Fish as a precaution with an injury to his left side near his rib. It sounds as though the 23-year-old's injury isn't serious at all, so he could be back in the starting lineup as soon as Wednesday after a day off. Arcia was recently picked up off waivers after he was cut by the Atlanta Braves and has only played in three games with the Rockies, going 3-for-9 with a solo home run. The veteran shortstop wasn't nearly as good in 14 games with Atlanta before being cut, hitting .194 (6-for-31) and losing his job to Nick Allen. Arcia will be a deep DFS sleeper against Alcantara, who has really struggled in 2025.

The Colorado Rockies announced on Tuesday that they placed rookie right-handed reliever Zach Agnos on the bereavement list and recalled right-hander Angel Chivilli from Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move. Agnos will be away from the team for at least a couple days and probably won't rejoin the club until Friday for their series opener at Coors Field against the New York Mets. The 24-year-old has quickly earned the trust of the coaching staff in high-leverage situations in his first year in the big leagues. Agnos picked up his fourth save of the season in the win on Monday over the Miami Marlins and has become one of Colorado's best bets for saves chances in the unlikely event that they pop up (the Rockies have just 10 wins all season). With Agnos away for a few days, Seth Halvorsen or Jake Bird could be called upon if the Rockies have another save situation between now and Friday.

Colorado Rockies reliever Zach Agnos picked up his fourth save of the season in Monday's 6-4 road victory against the Miami Marlins. The Virginia native fired 7-of-11 pitches for strikes, yielding just one hit (single). Agnos let up a home run in his appearance against the New York Mets on Sunday, so it was nice to see him bounce back with a scoreless outing. He's been perfect thus far, converting all four of his save chances. Unfortunately, he doesn't project to be afforded many opportunities in 2025 with Colorado on a historically dreadful pace. Still, the 24-year-old has been excellent -- sporting a 1.50 ERA and 0.83 WHIP over 16 appearances (18 innings). Agnos hasn't quite found a groove strikeout-wise (11.9%), but his splitter (38.3%) and sweeper (37.5%) are garnering whiffs at a strong rate.
