Troy Renck of the Denver Post writes that Huston Street (triceps) is "likely unavailable" Thursday.
Street hasn't pitched since Sunday due to right triceps soreness. With set-up man Matt Lindstrom on the disabled list, Jim Tracy would likely turn to Rafael Betancourt in a potential save situation if Street needs another day.

Huston Street is unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Reds due to a lat muscle injury.
Street just pitched Monday night against the Reds, recording the save in a rare clean appearance. Matt Lindstrom is also unavailable Tuesday due to arm soreness and Matt Belisle has pitched each of the last three days, so Rex Brothers could get the ball in a potential save situation.

Huston Street looked bad in a non-save situation Thursday, surrendering two runs on three hits in one inning of work.
While he's converted 28 of 31 save opportunities, Street has looked all too human recently, posting a 9.00 ERA in his last seven innings, during which he's served up three home run balls. Opponents are hitting .266 against him -- terrible for a closer, and 47 points higher than his career average.

With Colorado nursing a 3-1 lead with two outs in the top of the ninth inning on Monday, Huston Street allowed a Carlos Ruiz double before serving up a pinch-hit homer to John Mayberry, dooming the Rockies to a 4-3, 10-inning loss.
The blown save was Street's third of the season, and brings his ERA to 3.75 through 48 innings of work. He'll enter his next outing the owner of an elite 46/7 K/BB ratio.

Huston Street nailed down his 27th save Wednesday against the Dodgers despite allowing a solo home run to Rod Barajas.
Fortunately he entered the ninth inning with a 3-0 lead. Street needed 31 pitches to record three outs. It was Street's first save since July 9. He's tied for seventh in the league in saves. After a rough May in which he held a 6.52 ERA (he has a sub-3.00 ERA in all other months) while blowing two of six save chances, Street has righted the ship to allow just seven runs. He's blown zero saves in that time.
