📬 New Rockies Mailbag • Ryan McMahon's slump • Bad start karma for Arenado? • Yonathan Daza's demotion • And more...
Hey Patrick, down in Triple-A Albuquerque, Nolan Jones is looking like the elite-level prospect that Cleveland hoped he would be. Do you think he’ll get a call-up to the Rockies soon?Marshall, Jones is certainly raking. He’s slashing .336/.459/.664, good for a 1.222 OPS. He’s already hit nine homers and driven in 32 runs for the Isotopes.
Also, with Elias Diaz off to a great start catching and hitting, and Brian Serven performing subpar and playing less, what are the Rockies’ plans for second-string catching? Can Diaz continue to play back-to-back games? I understand Drew Romo is not yet ready to come up.Judy, in regard to Daza, the Rockies did the right thing. With the return of Randal Grichuk from the injured list and the promotion of Brenton Doyle, there was simply not enough room for Daza on the 26-man roster.
As an outfielder, Daza has regressed. He’s not as fast as he used to be, and while he has a good glove and strong arm, Doyle is better and covers more ground. Part of the reason Daza was making “phenomenal” catches was because he was late getting to the ball. Diaz, by the way, has been brilliant this season. He was hitting .333 with three homers and 18 RBIs entering Tuesday night’s game at Pittsburgh. His 238 innings behind the plate rank third in the majors. The Rockies believe Wynns can provide quality innings to give Diaz some needed breaks.
“But I get it, we’re 10 games out and that’s a big fall. But, like I said, we have five months left, and we have a long season left and we really feel good about what we have in this clubhouse.”
