Rockies' Cole Carrigg: First day off
Rotowire
Carrigg is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.
It's the first day off for Carrigg, who had started each of the Rockies' last 13 contests upon his promotion to the big leagues. Jake McCarthy will slide over to center field and will be flanked by Mickey Moniak in left field and Tyler Freeman in right field.
Carrigg went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Cubs.
Carrigg was credited with driving in all four of his club's runs, as he drew a bases-loaded walk in the sixth inning before cranking a three-run homer in the eighth frame to give the Rockies a lead they would ultimately squander. The early returns on the rookie have been positive, as he has gone 7-for-27 (.259) with three homers, a triple, eight RBI, six runs and three walks through seven games. Carrigg has yet to attempt a steal, though he's known for his activity on the basepaths after swiping 29 bags in 57 games with Triple-A Albuquerque prior to being promoted.
Carrigg went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 6-4 loss to the Athletics.
Carrigg has been a magnet for extra-base hits so far with two homers and a triple among his four hits over his first four major-league games. He's added four RBI and a 1:4 BB:K. Carrigg is getting a look in center field while Jake McCarthy (illness) is out. Carrigg could stick around for a bit, as Brenton Doyle (oblique), Jordan Beck (hamstring), Tyler Freeman (concussion) and Mickey Moniak (ankle) are not close to returning from the injured list, leaving the Rockies' outfield thin.

Rockies' Cole Carrigg: Records first big-league homer
Rotowire
Carrigg went 2-for-4 with a solo home run against the Cubs in a loss Thursday.
Carrigg achieved a milestone in the fourth inning, when he cranked a 418-foot blast to right field for his first major-league long ball. The talented rookie has started three straight games since being called up Tuesday and has gone 3-for-11 with a triple, a walk and Thursday's homer. Carrigg has yet to attempt a steal, but he swiped 29 bags over 57 games for Triple-A Albuquerque before joining the big club, so that skill should eventually show up as well.
Rockies' Cole Carrigg: Strokes triple in MLB debut
Rotowire
Carrigg went 1-for-3 with a triple and a walk in Tuesday's 7-3 win against the Cubs.
Carrigg was called up from Triple-A on Tuesday and started in center field while batting seventh. The 24-year-old flashed his speed in his big-league debut when he legged out a triple on a ball he hit down the right-field line. Carrigg could earn himself an everyday role if he hits well immediately, especially given that outfielders Jordan Beck (hamstring), Mickey Moniak (ankle), Brenton Doyle (oblique) and Tyler Freeman (concussion) are all currently on the injured list.

Rockies' Cole Carrigg: Called up to majors
Rotowire
The Rockies selected Carrigg's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.
Carrigg earned his first big-league promotion after slashing .338/.414/.529 with six home runs, 30 stolen bases and a 27:39 BB:K over 57 games with Albuquerque. Those numbers are inflated by his home park and the friendly offensive environment of the Pacific Coast League, but Carrigg has real fantasy upside with some pop and plenty of speed. The 24-year-old is worthy of being picked up in fantasy leagues in hopes that the Rockies put him in the lineup regularly.
