Rockies recalled INF Josh Rutledge from Triple-A Colorado Springs. He'll provide extra depth in the Rockies infield with Nolan Arenado on the disabled list. In his earlier stints with the Rockies this season, he hit .318/.375/.500 with a homer and four RBI in 22 at-bats. He's worth a look in mixed leagues if he looks to receive everyday at-bats while Arenado is sidelined.

Rutledge, who is still battling to be the team's starting second baseman, is hitting an impressive .303/.343/.515 on the spring season. Unfortunately for him, his main competition, D.J.

LeMahieu, but Rutledge should still have a spot on the Rockies' Opening Day roster as a utility middle infielder.
