Estevez (2-3) suffered the loss Wednesday against the Angels after allowing a run on two hits and a walk while striking out one over an inning.
EDGE Analysis
Estevez entered to begin the bottom half of eighth trying to preserve a 7-7 tie but was unable to do so. He allowed men to reach first and second before surrendering an RBI single to Phil Gosselin to put the Angels in front. That run would prove to be the difference, handing Estevez his second loss in four days. The 28-year-old owns a 5.35 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 35:12 K:BB over 35.1 innings this season.

Estevez (2-2) was tagged with the loss in relief Sunday against the Dodgers after allowing one run on two hits across one inning.
EDGE Analysis
Estevez hurled the eighth inning and was credited with the loss after allowing the decisive run of the game on a solo homer from star catcher Will Smith. Estevez has now allowed at least one run in three of his last five relief appearances and owns a 6.00 ERA across nine appearances this month.

Estevez (2-0) allowed an unearned run and walked two in one inning, but he earned the win Wednesday versus San Diego.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old yielded the game-tying run on a Trent Grisham sacrifice fly after Wil Myers reached on an error in the ninth inning. While the right-hander took the blown save, Charlie Blackmon's walkoff single in the bottom of the ninth gave Estevez the win. Estevez had a streak of 11.1 innings without walking a batter, but he's now yielded four free passes in his last three innings. He has a 3.86 ERA, 1.39 WHIP, 19:8 K:BB, two saves and three holds across 18.2 innings.

Estevez (1-0) earned the win in relief Tuesday against the Padres after tossing a scoreless inning, walking one and fanning one.
EDGE Analysis
Estevez pitched the seventh inning and while his command wasn't entirely sharp -- eight strikes out of 15 pitches -- he still got the job done and posted a scoreless outing. He's accomplished that feat in just three of his last six appearances, though, so the right-hander has been far from a reliable presence off the bullpen for the Rockies.

Estevez struck out two in a perfect ninth inning Monday to record his second save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Activated from the injured list Saturday after missing nearly a month of action due to a finger strain, Estevez picked up a hold in his first outing back before finishing up Monday's win. The right-hander hasn't given up an earned run in seven straight appearances dating back to April 15, but his save opportunity came with Daniel Bard having worked each of the prior two days. For now, Estevez will likely remain in a high-leverage set-up role.

Estevez (finger) tossed a 20-pitch simulated game Tuesday in San Diego, Shaun O'Neill of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Estevez will likely report to Triple-A Albuquerque and make a one-inning appearance Thursday in a rehab game. If all goes well, Estevez could return from the 10-day injured list and rejoin the Colorado bullpen for the team's weekend series with the Diamondbacks.

Estevez (finger) has yet to resume playing catch and won't be activated from the 10-day injured list when eligible Monday, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Rockies hope the right-hander will be able to play catch soon, as he's apparently been shut down from throwing since landing on the injured list with a finger strain at the start of May. Estevez figures to be at least a few weeks away from returning from the shelf since he'll likely need to build up his arm after being unable to throw.

Estevez landed on the 10-day injured list with a strained right middle finger Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The move was made retroactive to Friday, so Estevez can return as soon as next Monday. It's not yet clear if he's expected to do so. Sam Hilliard was recalled in a corresponding move.

Estevez allowed one run (none earned) on one hit and also struck out one to earn the save Tuesday against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Estevez entered the game in the 10th inning with a three-run lead after Daniel Bard blew a save chance one inning earlier. He surrendered a leadoff single to begin the frame -- allowing the runner starting on second to score -- but struck out the next batter he faced before inducing a double play to end the game. It's not clear that Estevez would be next in line for saves should Bard continue to struggle, as Robert Stephenson and Mychal Givens were both unavailable after being used earlier in the game.

Estevez allowed one run on one hit and no walks while striking out one over one inning in Friday's spring win over Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Estevez came on during the ninth inning of Friday's Cactus League matchup and gave up a home run to lead off the inning, but he retired the next two batters before striking out Beau Taylor to end the game. The right-hander has made six relief appearances this spring and has allowed 10 runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out five over six innings.
