Tovar went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Monday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks. Tovar showed of his power Monday when he took Merrill Kelly deep to the right-center field bullpen. It was Tovar's 24th homer of the season, which ties him with Michael Toglia for the team lead. Tovar entered August slashing .290/.314/.491 but has struggled mightily since to the tune of .194/.229/.388 with six homers and 16 RBI over his last 40 games.

Tovar (sports hernia) will start at shortstop and bat second in Tuesday's game versus the Marlins. Tovar missed Monday's game while dealing with a sports hernia, but it wound up being just a one-day absence. The 23-year-old has struggled so far in August with just a .482 OPS.

Tovar, who was given the day off Monday while dealing with a sports hernia, is expected to be in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports. The Rockies failed to disclose much about Tovar's issue prior to this point, which could be one of the causes for his struggles at the dish so far in August. However, the issue shouldn't force the 23-year-old shortstop to miss additional time assuming he feels ready to play ahead of Tuesday's matchup.
