Rockies To Promote Outfielder Jordan Beck

Apr 30, 2024 10:12 AM

The Colorado Rockies are calling up top outfield prospect Jordan Beck, according to a report.

Beck isn't on Colorado's 40-man roster, which means the Rockies will need to make at least one corresponding transaction.

Beck, 23, was the No. 38 overall draft pick out of the University of Tennessee in 2022 and entered the season ranked 81st among all Major League prospects, per MLB.com.

Bud Black Hopeful That Kris Bryant's Injury Is Minor

Apr 14, 2024 11:28 AM

Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said he doesn't expect outfielder Kris Bryant to miss significant time after the former NL MVP left Saturday's game at Toronto in the fourth inning because of soreness in his right ribs and back.

"Don't think it's bad, but we'll see how it is overnight," Black said. "Hoping he's back in there tomorrow and it resolves itself."

A four-time All-Star and the 2016 NL MVP, Bryant felt sore after he twisted and crashed into the outfield wall after making a catch on Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s deep drive in the first.
