Designated for assignment The Rockies designated Bruihl for assignment Friday.
Impact Since being acquired from the Dodgers ahead of the trade deadline, Bruihl has surrendered six runs in just 3.2 frames with the Rockies. As a result, he'll be cast off the 40-man roster and replaced in the bullpen by Evan Justice, who was selected from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

Selected to active roster The Rockies selected Justice's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.
Impact Justice began the season with High-A Spokane, and he has now completed his rapid ascension through Colorado's farm system and onto the major-league roster. The 25-year-old lefty struggled during his time in Triple-A with a 6.23 ERA and 1.54 WHIP through 13 frames, but considering the Rockies hold the third-worst bullpen ERA in the majors (5.17), they will take help anywhere they can get it. Justin Bruihl was DFA'd in a corresponding move.

Cleared for rehab assignment Anderson (shoulder) allowed three runs over 2.2 innings Thursday in his first rehab start with Triple-A Albuquerque.
Impact Anderson has been sidelined for just over a month with right shoulder inflammation but is ready to get built back up. He should either rejoin the Rockies' rotation or perhaps be used as a long reliever once he's deemed ready.

Allows two homers in no-decision Lambert did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk over five innings against the Rays. He struck out six.
Impact Lambert got taken deep by Luke Raley on a hanging four-seamer to lead off the bottom of the second and was again victimized by the outfielder in the fourth, this time on a triple, before the latter came around to score a second time. Those would be the only two runs allowed by Lambert on the afternoon as he made it through at least five innings for the third consecutive start. The right-hander has allowed at least one home run in each of his last four starts and now carries a 5.19 ERA in August. On a positive note, he's issued just one walk in each of his last three outings, striking out 15 over that stretch.

Taking seat Thursday Diaz is not in the lineup for Thursday's tilt against the Rays, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports.
Impact The Rockies have a day game after playing a night game Wednesday, so Diaz will receive a well-earned breather. Austin Wynns will do the catching for Peter Lambert.

Receives rare day off Tovar is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Tampa Bay, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports.
Impact It's the first time Tovar hasn't been in the lineup since he was on the paternity leave list back in late June. Alan Trejo will get a start at shortstop.

Slugs 13th homer Diaz went 3-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Rays.
Impact The veteran backstop got the Rockies on the board in the fifth inning with a solo shot off Aaron Civale before adding a two-run single in the sixth that put his team ahead, only for closer Justin Lawrence to melt down again in the ninth. The streaky Diaz seems to be heating up again -- after going 4-for-38 (.105) with only a solo homer over his prior 12 games, he's erupted for nine hits and eight RBI in his last four. On the season, Diaz is slashing .271/.322/.425 with 13 home runs, 37 runs and 59 RBI in a career-high 111 contests.

Blows sixth save Lawrence gave up two runs on three hits and a walk in the ninth inning Wednesday, blowing his sixth save chance of the season in an eventual 6-5 loss to the Rays. He struck out one...
Impact The 28-year-old righty didn't get stuck with the losing decision -- that honor went to Brent Suter, who got tagged for an unearned run in the 10th -- but Lawrence was the architect of this defeat, loading the bases with one out before giving up a two-run single to Yandy Diaz. Lawrence has blown five of his last eight save opportunities, stumbling to a 10.80 ERA and 2.10 WHIP over his last 10 innings, and it's not clear how much longer manager Bud Black will stick with him as closer.

Quality start wasted Gomber came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Rays, giving up three runs on seven hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out four.
Impact The southpaw exited the game after 82 pitches (54 strikes) in line for his career-high 10th win of the season, but the Rockies bullpen imploded late. The quality start was Gomber's fifth in eight trips to the mound since the All-Star break, a stretch in which he's posted a 3.69 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 25:11 K:BB through 46.1 innings. He figures to be an extremely risky play in his next outing, which is likely to come at home in Coors Field early next week against Atlanta.
