Julien is not in the lineup for Friday's contest versus the Mets.

Julien went 7-for-23 with five RBI and four runs scored during the Rockies' recent six-game homestand, but he will get a breather Friday as the team begins a road trip. Tyler Freeman is handling second base and batting cleanup.

Lindor (calf) will wear a boot for the next week and remain shut down for at least three weeks, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

After the three weeks are up, Lindor will have more imaging on his left calf to check his progress. He could resume baseball activities at that point if the Mets are satisfied with the MRI, but Lindor would be ramped back up slowly. It all points to a lengthy absence for the star shortstop, but more will be known about a timeline by mid-May. Ronny Mauricio is filling in at shortstop for the Mets in Lindor's stead.

Peterson is slated to pitch Wednesday versus the Nationals, either as a traditional starting pitcher or bulk reliever, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Peterson has posted a 6.41 ERA in four starts this season, but he pitched better his last two times out. While working behind an opener this past Sunday against the Cubs and then pitching in long relief in Thursday's win over the Twins, Peterson covered seven innings and gave up one earned run on seven hits and one walk. The left-hander will likely be on a short leash Wednesday, but Peterson will be afforded another opportunity to restate his case for a rotation spot.

Triolo (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Bradenton on Friday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Triolo has been sidelined for nearly three weeks with a knee issue, but he's ready to test things out in a game setting. The infielder could be ready to return at some point next week and will be in the mix for starts at third base when he is activated.

The Brewers recalled Drohan from Triple-A Nashville on Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Drohan was ineffective in a spot start earlier this month, allowing three runs on three hits and four walks over 2.2 innings. The left-hander will operate as a long reliever during this stint in the big leagues.

The Brewers optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Nashville on Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Rodriguez has allowed one run with a 5:0 K:BB across two two-inning relief outings with the big club. His spot on the roster and in the bullpen will be absorbed by Shane Drohan.

The Brewers recalled Black from Triple-A Nashville on Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Black has hit .282/.378/.410 with one home run and two steals in 10 games for Nashville since returning from an undisclosed injury. The left-handed bat could see some action against right-handed pitching while the Brewers navigate injuries to Christian Yelich (groin), Jackson Chourio (hand) and Andrew Vaughn (hand).

The Rockies recalled Peralta from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

Peralta has collected a 3.72 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with seven strikeouts over 9.2 innings in the bullpen at Albuquerque this season. The left-hander will provide the Rockies with a fresh relief arm.

The Rockies placed Feltner on the 15-day injured list Friday with right ulnar nerve inflammation.

Feltner was removed from his start against the Padres on Thursday due to what was called right triceps tightness at the time, but upon a more thorough exam, it turns out he has a nerve issue in his pitching elbow. The Rockies have not revealed a timetable for the righty's return, but it's an injury that could result in an extended absence.

Atlanta outrighted Hamilton to Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Hamilton was removed from the 40-man roster after giving up three runs in his lone appearance in the majors. Since he's been outrighted previously, Hamilton has the ability to decline the assignment and become a free agent, but it's unclear what his plans are.
