Aaron Schunk - Clobbers first homer in win Schunk went 2-for-3 with a solo homer and a walk in Wednesday's win over the Marlins.
Impact Schunk walked in his first trip to the plate and advanced to second on an infield single from Charlie Blackmon, but the infielder would be left stranded after the next three batters went down in succession. The 27-year-old came up big in his second at-bat, however, launching a 429-foot solo homer in the fifth to put the Rockies on top 3-2. Schunk went on to reach three times in the contest while logging his third multi-hit performance of the campaign. It also marked his first long ball of the season and he's now recorded an RBI in each of his last two starts.

Kyle Freeland - Second straight quality start Freeland (4-6) picked up the win over the Marlins on Wednesday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk over six innings while striking out five.
Impact Freeland was efficient throughout much of the contest, with his biggest mistake coming in the second inning when he left a sinker over the heart of the plate for Derek Hill to open the frame, which the outfielder deposited into the stands in left field for a solo homer. The lefty would surrender one more run in the fourth on a Griffin Conine single, but was still able to make it through six frames for his second consecutive quality start. Freeland has allowed multiple runs in all five of his starts this month and currently holds a 5.19 ERA to go along with a 19:9 K:BB.

Brendan Rodgers - Resting amid slump Rodgers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
Impact Rodgers is likely getting a veteran's rest day after he had started each of the Rockies' last 20 games. He owns an .818 OPS for August but has cooled off at the plate of late, going 3-for-24 with 11 strikeouts and no walks over his last six contests. Aaron Schunk will step in at second base for the slumping Rodgers.

Jake Cave - Getting fifth straight start Cave will start in right field and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
Impact When Nolan Jones returned from the injured list Aug. 18, Jordan Beck appeared to have supplanted Cave for a regular role in the corner outfield, but the Rockies have since turned back to Cave as their preferred option versus right-handed pitching. He'll draw a fifth consecutive start after going 8-for-17 with a home run, two doubles, five RBI and three runs over the previous four contests.

Brenton Doyle - Back in Colorado lineup Doyle (knee) will start in center field and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
Impact Doyle missed each of the last two starts with left patella tendinitis, an issue which also caused him to miss a couple contests back in June. He's feeling well enough to give it a go in the third game of a four-game set versus Miami.

Angel Chivilli - Blows save, takes loss Chivilli (1-2) allowed one earned run on one hit and no walks while striking out one to take the loss and blow the save Tuesday against the Marlins.
Impact Chivilli entered the game in the ninth inning with runners on second and third and the Rockies holding onto a two-run lead. Tyler Kinley began the frame and imploded to allow four earned runs, but Chivilli still had the chance to close the door on the win. Instead, he served up a three-run home run to Jesus Sanchez. Since being recalled to the majors Aug. 1, Chivilli has maintained a 2.77 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with an 11:3 K:BB across 13 frames and has quickly found himself in a high-leverage role.

Tyler Kinley - Surrenders four earned runs Kinley allowed four earned runs on three hits and a walk while failing to record an out Tuesday against the Marlins.
Impact Kinley has picked up the lone save for the Rockies since Victor Vodnik (shoulder) was placed on the injured list, and he entered Tuesday's game in the ninth inning with a four-run lead. Though he wasn't charged with a blown save or loss, Kinley allowed all four batters he faced to reach base, concluding with a two-run double with the bases loaded. It's unclear whether this meltdown will affect his status as closer, though Kinley had maintained a 1.53 WHIP and 0.74 WHIP across 17.2 innings since the All-Star break prior to Tuesday's appearance.

Sam Hilliard - Homers in loss Hilliard went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 9-8 loss to the Marlins on Tuesday.
Impact Hilliard has started consecutive games in center field while Brenton Doyle (leg) is dealing with an injury. Playing time has been inconsistent for Hilliard in August, though he's batting a respectable .282 (11-for-39) with five extra-base hits and eight RBI this month. The outfielder is at a .247/.298/.471 slash line with five homers, 16 RBI, 17 runs scored and four stolen bases over 97 plate appearances this season.
