Rockies starter Juan Nicasio is in jeopardy of losing his spot in the rotation, the Denver Post reports.
Nicasio has a 5.31 ERA on the season and has allowed 13 runs on 23 hits over his last three starts (13 innings). His 12 hits allowed in 2 1/3 innings Tuesday against Boston was a career high.
"It’s tough in this league when you don’t have consistent fastball command. Juan has a good fastball, but you have to command it up here," manager Walt Weiss said. Drew Pomeranz is the likely replacement if the Rockies oust Nicasio.
