Rockies Place Thairo Estrada on Injured List Due to Hamstring Strain

WHAT'S THE STORY?

What's Happening?

The Colorado Rockies have placed infielder Thairo Estrada on the 10-day injured list due to a right hamstring strain. Estrada has faced multiple injuries this season, including a fractured wrist and a sprained thumb. In response, the Rockies have recalled infielder Adael Amador from Triple-A Albuquerque. Estrada has been batting .253 over 39 games in his first season with the Rockies, while Amador has a batting average of .184 with the team.

Why It's Important?

Estrada's injury is a setback for the Rockies as they lose a key player in their lineup. His absence could impact the team's performance, especially given his previous contributions. The recall of Adael Amador provides an opportunity for the young infielder to prove himself at the major league level. However, Amador's current batting average suggests that the Rockies may face challenges in maintaining their offensive strength.
