Player News

Rutledge delivers three hits in loss to Cubs | 05/16/2013 12:31 AM

News

Josh Rutledge went 3-for-4 with two RBI in the Rockies' loss to the Cubs on Wednesday.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

The second baseman has struggled to find consistency in his first full year, but he's never gotten too low as to play himself out of a job. Rutledge has hit five homers and stolen five bases on the year, and he's actually getting on base at a decent clip given his mediocre batting average. His two RBI Wednesday gives him 13 on the year.

Rutledge hitless in loss to Diamondbacks | 04/26/2013 1:27 AM

News

Josh Rutledge went 0-for-3 with a walk Thursday against the Diamondbacks.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

The 0-fer snapped a modest five-game hitting streak. While the 24-year-old is hitting just .221 (17-for-77) through 21 games, he has already drawn eight walks. He walked just nine times in 291 plate appearances as a rookie last season.

Josh Rutledge goes 0-for-4 in loss | 04/10/2013 7:03 PM

News

Josh Rutledge went 0-for-4 in Wednesday's loss to the Giants, dropping his OBP to .235.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Rutledge's career OBP dropped under .300 today, because while he's a lifetime .271 hitter, he's walked just nine times in 310 at-bats since debuting last year. Ideally, he'll pick it up a bit and justify his presence in the two hole in the Colorado lineup. As is, the team would be better off with Chris Nelson there and Rutledge somewhere near the bottom.

Rutledge forced from Sunday's game | 03/30/2013 3:49 PM

News

Josh Rutledge left Saturday's game after being involved in a collision with Michael Cuddyer.

Impact

Rutledge appears to have avoided injury and just had the wind knocked out of him. He was able to leave under his own power.

Rutledge comes out swinging in 2013 opener | 02/23/2013 7:48 PM

News

Josh Rutledge started his Cactus League campaign on the right foot Saturday, going 3-for-3 with four RBI in the Rockies' 11-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

The 23-year-old is slated to be the Rockies starting second baseman, and Saturday was a good start to his first spring as a full-timer. In 291 plate appearances in 2012, Rutledge hit .274/.306/.469. With a full slate of chances, Rutledge could be a nice source of double-digit homers and steals with a decent batting average in 2013.
