The Rockies optioned Justice to Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Justice will head back to the minors just four days after joining the big club and recording one out in his season debut Sunday. The 26-year-old southpaw owns a 9.90 ERA through 20 innings at Albuquerque, though he's surrendered just one earned run across his last six minor-league appearances. Jaden Hill was selected from Triple-A in a corresponding move.
