Goes deep again Saturday Blackmon went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Mets on Saturday.

Impact Blackmon brought the Rockies to within a run with his two-run blast in the fifth frame, but that was the last time Colorado was able to score. The homer was Blackmon's second in as many games since returning from a hamstring injury that resulted in him sitting out three matchups. The veteran outfielder had gone deep just twice over his previous 26 games prior to leaving the park in back-to-back contests.

Issues five walks in defeat Feltner (1-9) took the loss against the Mets on Saturday, allowing four runs (three earned) on two hits and five walks while striking out seven batters over 3.2 innings.

Impact Feltner had trouble finding the striking zone, as the five walks were two more than his previous season high. Three of the free passes came in the second frame, which was when the Mets scored all four of their runs against him. Feltner did at least manage to register seven punchouts, but he couldn't avoid his ninth loss of the campaign. Among NL pitchers, only teammate Dakota Hudson has lost more games, and Feltner has been mostly ineffective with a 5.36 ERA and 1.45 WHIP across 102.1 innings.

Back with big-league club The Rockies recalled Chivilli from Double-A Hartford on Saturday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Chivilli got his first major-league opportunity in June but struggled with an 8.44 ERA and 1.50 WHIP over 5.1 innings. He served up three long balls and struck out only two batters, though he didn't walk anybody. Chivilli has shown better success with a 2.49 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 37:12 K:BB across 25.1 frames at Double-A this season. He'll likely serve in a low-leverage bullpen role while with the big club.

Returns to majors The Rockies recalled Bouchard from Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Bouchard's opportunity to return to the big-league club comes as a result of Nolan Jones (back) landing on the 10-day injured list. Bouchard has spent much of the season with Colorado, slashing .200/.307/.318 with a home run, eight RBI and four steals over 102 plate appearances. He was sent down to the minors in late June after battling a back injury and hit .357 with a long ball, seven RBI and a steal across seven contests prior to being recalled.

Goes on IL due to back strain Colorado placed Jones (back) on the 10-day injured list Saturday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Jones was scratched from Friday's starting lineup with what has subsequently been deemed a low-back strain. The outfielder's placement on the 10-day IL is retroactive to July 12, so he'll be eligible to return for the series opener against Boston on the first Monday after the All-Star break. The Rockies recalled outfielder Sean Bouchard from Triple-A as part of a set of additional moves.

Sent down to minors The Rockies optioned Gordon to Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Gordon was demoted after surrendering four homers while giving up six runs over three-plus innings against the Mets on Friday. The right-hander has yielded a total of 11 earned runs over 9.1 frames across his first two major-league starts and will get a chance to reset at Triple-A. Colorado also placed Nolan Jones (back) on the IL on Saturday while recalling outfielder Sean Bouchard and reliever Angel Chivilli from the minors. Gordon's short-lived spot in the big-league rotation will be assumed by German Marquez, who is set to return from the injured list to make his season debut Sunday.

Returning Sunday Marquez (elbow) will be reinstated from the 60-day injured list to start Sunday's game against the Mets, The Denver Post reports.

Impact Sunday will mark Marquez's first time pitching in the majors since undergoing Tommy John surgery in May 2023. The 29-year-old has made six rehab starts since mid-June, during which he posted a 6.23 ERA and 1.50 WHIP alongside a 23:4 K:BB through 17.1 innings between each of Colorado's minor-league affiliates. He's expected to throw 75-to-90 pitches during his season debut and will be matched up against a New York offense that ranks third in the NL with a .742 OPS.

Belts fifth homer Blackmon went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Friday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.

Impact The 38-year-old outfielder lofted a Jake Diekman fastball off the facing of the second deck in right field at Citi Field in the eighth inning, one of nine combined homers by the two teams on the night -- the highest single-game total in the majors this season. Blackmon missed the prior three games with a sore hamstring, but he looked healthy in his return as the DH. The blast was his second long ball through eight games in July, and his fifth of the year.

Goes yard in Friday's loss Rodgers went 1-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.

Impact His seventh-inning shot off Sean Manaea kicked off a late rally for the Rockies that fell just short. It was Rodgers' first homer in July, and only his second extra-base hit -- the 27-year-old infielder is slashing just .209/.277/.302 through 11 games on the month with two RBI and five runs.

Mauled by Mets Gordon (0-2) took the loss Friday as the Rockies were downed 7-6 by the Mets, coughing ups six runs on eight hits -- including four home runs -- and two walks over three-plus innin...

Impact The two teams combined for nine long balls on the night, the highest single-game total in the majors this season, and Gordon took the brunt of it. Harrison Bader in particular had the rookie right-hander's number, blasting a second-inning fastball over the fence in left-center field before ripping a hanging slider down the left-field line in the fourth. Gordon has served up six homers in 9.1 innings over his first two big-league starts, and with German Marquez (elbow) on the verge of coming off the IL, he's likely headed back to Triple-A Albuquerque -- where Gordon has been tagged for nine homers in 33.2 innings.
