Hunter Goodman's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Colorado Rockies catcher Hunter Goodman went 3-for-4 with a pair of home runs and collected seven RBI in Friday's 9-5 win over the Cubs. The first home run was a two-run shot in the second inning that gave the Rockies a 2-1 lead, while the second was a go-ahead grand slam that broke a 5-5 tie in the eighth, putting the Rockies up 9-5. The home runs gave the 24-year-old 11 of them on the season, but he has yet to string together a productive stretch of games at the plate, hitting just .191 with an OBP of .231 and a K% of 28.2% at the major league level this year. The power is legit, however, as the slugger had a span of eight games at Triple-A back in April in which he belted seven home runs. We'll see if this performance gets him going.

The Colorado Rockies have demoted catcher/first baseman/outfielder Hunter Goodman to Triple-A Albuquerque. Goodman has seen two stints with the big-league club this season, with his most recent lasting much of the season. In his time with the Rockies, the slugger hit .177 with eight home runs and 24 RBI over 54 games. The power translated from the farm, but not much as else. Goodman wasn't seeing much opportunity with the Rockies and will now see every day at-bats with Albuquerque, where he hit .298 with seven homers and 22 RBI in 20 games earlier this season. Goodman's power plays well at Coors Field, but he is still without a firm position and will need to get better at making contact at the plate. For now, dynasty managers can move on from Goodman with catcher prospect Drew Romo replacing him on the roster and having more upside in the future.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Hunter Goodman is in the starting lineup and will hit eighth while manning right field against the San Diego Padres and right-hander Randy Vasquez. The 24-year-old was called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday and went 0-for-2 with a strikeout in a pair of pinch-hitting plate appearances but will get his first start in the big leagues this season on Thursday. Goodman debuted with the Rockies last season but struggled to a .200 average with just one homer and one stolen base across 77 plate appearances. However, he has demolished Triple-A pitching to the tune of a .298 average with seven homers, 22 RBI, and a 1.042 OPS across 20 games so far this season. He is worth a deep-league add given the light-tower power he has displayed throughout his minor-league tenure.
