Colorado Rockies second baseman/outfielder Chris Owings (thumb) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left thumb sprain. Owings had been dealing with hamstring tightness earlier this week, causing him to sit two straight games, but this is a new injury. The team called up infielder Alan Trejo in a corresponding move. Owings has been fantastic so far this year, going 8-for-16 with three triples and three doubles. Trejo will have an opportunity for playing time while Owings is ...

Colorado Rockies second baseman/outfielder Chris Owings (hamstring) came on as a pinch-hitter in Friday's game against the San Francisco Giants and hit a triple. However, he is still dealing with hamstring tightness. He first aggravated the hamstring in Wednesday's game and was forced to leave the game. He's been absent from the team's starting lineup in both games since. Owings has played second base and all three outfield positions for the Rockies this year. If the injury persists, ...

Colorado Rockies second baseman Chris Owings had a memorable day at the dish in Thursday's Opening Day win. He went 3-for-3 with a triple, three runs scored, a pair of stolen bases, and a walk in the Rockies 8-5 victory over the Dodgers.

Owings scored the team's first run in the bottom of the third inning and broke up a 4-4 tie when he ...

Colorado Rockies outfielder Chris Owings has had his contract purchased by the team, according to Thomas Harding of MLB.com. Owings and first baseman C.J. Cron, who also signed a minor-league deal in the offseason, were both added to the major league roster on Saturday.

Colorado has some options at that position with both Garrett...

Colorado Rockies utilityman Chris Owings left Wednesdays contest against the D-backs early due to left hamstring tightness.

The veteran has made it his calling card to move all around the diamond, although he is primarily a DFS play for owners looking to take advantage of him hitting at Coors Field. His ...

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Chris Owings has been called up by the organization on Sunday. Owings hit .133 with two home runs and nine runs knocked in with the Royals earlier this season.
