This morning following the unveiling of the new Larry Walker statue, the Colorado Rockies announced a series of roster moves.
Kyle Karros had just returned from the injured list before leaving last night’s game against the Cleveland Guardians after the fifth
inning. As manager Warren Schaeffer said in the postgame, “[He had] symptoms similiar to his concussion. So we had to take him out.”
In his place, the Rockies have recalled infielder/outfielder Ryan Ritter. Ritter has had his own injuries to contend with this season, but is back with the Rockies as Eli Whitney reported this morning.
Perhaps most surprising is the Rockies decision to option Tyler Freeman to Triple-A Albuquerque.
Freeman has been a regular in the Rockies lineup since joining the team last season in a trade with the Guardians. He has been on the IL twice this season, and recently went 1-for-4 with a walk as the designated hitter in his third rehab game with Triple-A Albuquerque.
