Schunk went 2-for-5 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Monday's extra-innings win over the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Schunk has only started six of 19 games since being promoted for his big-league debut, and he's accrued just 23 plate appearances as a result. The initial return isn't promising, as he's hitting just .136 with a 34.8 percent strikeout rate, though the uneven playing time likely isn't helping him settle in. Schunk also managed the first multi-hit game of his career Monday.

Schunk went 1-for-3 Sunday against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Schunk was in the lineup for only the third time since being recalled June 8. Two of his starts have come at third base and one at second. He took advantage of his opportunity Sunday by tallying his first big-league hit in the third inning, looping the ball into center field.

Schunk went 0-for-1 on Saturday against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Schunk entered Saturday's game as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning to make his major-league debut. He had his contract selected Friday, though it's unclear how much playing time he'll receive with Brendan Rodgers and Ryan McMahon locked in as starters at second base and third base, respectively.

The Rockies selected Schunk's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Schunk posted an .811 OPS in his first taste of the Triple-A level and has followed up with a .291/.339/.469 slash line through 69 contests this year. That production has come in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, so the numbers are likely a bit inflated. Schunk will be making his big-league debut when he gets into a game, and he should see some playing time between second and third base while up with the Rockies, though those opportunities could be limited with Brendan Rodgers and Ryan McMahon currently healthy.

Schunk is slashing .300/.354/.567 with six home runs and a 29.3 percent strikeout rate in 99 plate appearances for Triple-A Albuquerque.

EDGE Analysis

A second-round pick in 2019, Schunk has split time between third base (his natural position) and second base for the Isotopes. He generated buzz a couple years ago after a strong debut in 2019 and positive reports from the alternate training site during the pandemic. This could be a post-hype breakout, but as a 25-year-old with an elevated strikeout rate playing in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, Schunk offers several reasons to doubt whether he would have success against big-league pitching.

The Rockies added Schunk to their 60-man roster pool Monday.

EDGE Analysis

A 2019 second-round pick, Schunk hasn't played above the rookie-ball level, so he won't be a serious candidate to elevate to the big-league roster in 2020. His entry into the 60-man pool will at least allow the Rockies to oversee his development at their alternate training site this summer following the cancellation of the minor-league season.
