Colorado

Rockies

Doyle will take a seat for the first time this season. Troy Johnston will enter the starting lineup in right field, and Jake McCarthy will switch over to center field. Doyle is hitless in his first 12 plate appearances this season, so perhaps a day off will help him clear his head.

Beck drove in all three runs for the Rockies on a bases-clearing double in the first inning. Colorado would score no more runs, and they fall to 0-3 on the season. Beck did drive in four runs over the weekend, and there’s some long-term upside in his bat.

Vodnik allowed a two-run homer to Owen Caissie with two outs to blow his first save chance of the season. The right-hander was throwing hard with several fastballs ticking above 100 mph, but he left a pitch in the wrong spot to Caissie to prevent the four-out save. Vodnik still should get most of the limited chances that the Rockies will provide.

Quintana was making his debut with the Rockies, and it was an uninspiring one. He struggled to throw strikes with four walks, and he allowed four hits while striking out two. Could be worse, but you can do a lot better. He’s a terrible streaming idea for next weekend against the Phillies.

Tovar’s only hit of the day left the yard and put two runs on the board for Colorado as he took Eury Pérez deep in the fourth inning. The 24-year-old shortstop is a prime bounce-back candidate after missing nearly half the season to injury in 2025. Hits in each of his first two games, including the home run on the road, is a good start.

Rumfield put the Rockies on the board with a solo homer off Eury Pérez in the second inning. It was Rumfield’s first career home run after winning the first base job this spring. The 25-year-old has flashed excellent contact skills that should play up in Colorado.

Lorenzen escaped a bases-loaded jam in the second inning, then gave up one run on two hits and a sac fly in the third. Liam Hicks later took him deep for a two-run blast to tie the game at three in the fifth. That would end Lorenzen’s day at 93 pitches. He scattered seven total hits and struck out four batters. The 34-year-old right-hander will take on the Phillies in Colorado on Friday and could be ignored for fantasy purposes.

Beck, who went 1-for-3 with an RBI and was also caught stealing during Thursday’s opener, takes a seat with Troy Johnston getting an opportunity to face his former club. This doesn’t appear to be a matchup-related decision, but it’s possible Beck will be in more of a timeshare than originally envisioned as Colorado tries to work a couple new faces into their early-season mix.

Goodman was the only player on the Rockies to tally more than one hit in Friday’s loss to the Marlins. The 2025 All-Star was robbed of his first RBI on the season when a single to right field that nearly scored Jake McCarthy from second resulted in McCarthy being thrown out by Austin Slater. Goodman broke out for 31 homers and 91 RBI last season while slashing .278/.323/.520 and is among the top fantasy catchers this season playing in the hitter-friendly confines of Coors Field.

Freeland walked two batters in the first inning but escaped unharmed. It would be the only two batters he walked on the evening. In the bottom of the second, however, three-straight hits surrendered to Xavier Edwards, Owen Caissie, and Javier Sanoja, plated two runs for the Marlins in the frame to give them the early 2-0 lead. Freeland again found himself in trouble in the third inning when he put runners on the corners with one out via a hit and a hit batter, but back-to-back groundballs ended that threat. He was pulled after allowing a groundball out to Jakob Marsee to start the fifth inning to, putting an end to his first start of the season. Freeland did his part to limit runners after a shaky first two innings. His next start is scheduled for Wednesday in Toronto.
