• Rockies' Shawn O'Malley: Returns from hand injury

  05/01/2018 • By RotoWire

  O'Malley (hand) is 3-for-11 in three games since returning from the disabled list for Triple-A Albuquerque. The utility man was sidelined with a broken hand since spring training, but he was able to return to action with the Isotopes over the weekend after rehabbing at extended spring training to start the season. O'Malley has a unique profile as a switch hitter who can play both on the infield and the outfield, but his .231 career batting average in the majors suggests he's destined for an organizational depth role.

• Rockies' Shawn O'Malley: Hampered by fractured hand

  03/14/2018 • By RotoWire

  O'Malley is sidelined with a broken left hand, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports. No word has come forth as to when the injury cropped up, but the injury has limited him to just 15 at-bats this spring. O'Malley hopes to have the cast removed from his hand later this week, but it will still be tough for him to take part in many baseball activities for the time being. This all but rules him out from landing an active roster spot out of camp, leaving him to dwell as an organizational depth piece once again this season.

• Rockies' Shawn O'Malley: Inks minor-league deal with Rockies

  12/16/2017 • By RotoWire

  O'Malley agreed to a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Saturday which includes an invitation to spring training, Bob Dutton of The Tacoma News Tribune reports. O'Malley missed the majority of the 2017 season while recovering from an appendectomy and arthroscopic shoulder surgery. He ended up appearing in 33 games across three levels of the minors, but hit just .235/.333/.361 over that span before being cast off the Mariners' 40-man roster in September. He'll look to catch on as a utility man, though it's more likely he winds up as organizational depth.
