Up as extra man Gilbreath was called up to serve as the extra man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Mets.

Impact If Gilbreath appears in either half of the twin bill, it will be not just his first career big-league appearance but also his first appearance above High-A. He didn't look particularly impressive in 28 starts at that level in 2019, posting a 5.81 ERA and 1.68 WHIP.

Singles three times Daza went 3-for-4 with a RBI in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact The part-time outfielder is now hitting .375 in 16 at-bats this season. Daza earned a roster spot with a strong spring training and may work his way into the lineup more regularly with more offensive showings like Thursday's. So far, though, he's primarily been a pinch hitter, having started just three games.

On board with first homer Hampson went 1-for-5 with a home run and two strikeouts in Thursday's loss to the Dodgers.

Impact After Ryan McMahon hit his sixth long ball, Hampson finally hit his first, a solo shot in the third inning off lefty Julio Urias. Hampson had a .047 ISO entering this game and still only has a .637 OPS on the season, but he's running from atop the order (four steals), and the light should remain green on this squad with essentially nothing to lose.

Jacks sixth homer McMahon went 2-for-4 with a double, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Thursday's loss to the Dodgers.

Impact McMahon lifted a Julio Urias pitch over the fence for his sixth homer of the young season, putting him behind only Ronald Acuna for the major-league lead. The pitch he hit out of the yard was a curveball, but McMahon is notably punishing fastballs this season after he had some trouble catching up to heat last year.

Strong showing against Dodgers Gomber allowed three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over six innings in a no-decision against the Dodgers on Thursday.

Impact Justin Turner smacked a three-run homer off Gomber, but the lefty was strong otherwise and was even briefly in line to beat the defending World Series champs before Yency Almonte coughed up the lead. Gomber, acquired in the Nolan Arenado trade, issued seven free passes over three innings in his Rockies debut at Coors Field. In two road starts since, Gomber has pitched 12.1 innings with only seven hits allowed, six walks and 12 strikeouts. Unfortunately, he's home again next week, but then Gomber projects for a couple more road starts the week of April 26.

Increasing intensity Freeland (shoulder) has increased his throwing intensity recently but still hasn't thrown off a mound, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Freeland recently resumed playing light catch and has continued to make progress over the past week. He joined the Rockies for their current road trip in Los Angeles, but he still doesn't have a timetable to return to game action. The left-hander will have to get back on the mound and build back up before he's cleared to make his season debut. Chi Chi Gonzalez should continue to serve as a member of the starting rotation while Freeland is sidelined.

Continues to make progress Rodgers (hamstring) has been taking batting practice and playing the field recently, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Rodgers joined the Rockies for their current road trip in Los Angeles, and he still appears to be on the right track in his recovery. Manager Bud Black said that Rodgers will be sent to the team's alternate training site to take live at-bats once he's closer to a return. While the 24-year-old has continued to make progress after he suffered a right hamstring strain in mid-March, he still doesn't have a clear timetable to return.
