Lambert (2-1) tossed five scoreless innings, scattering three hits and one walk, to earn his second win of the season Friday versus the Marlins. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

Lambert was called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday afternoon and seemingly secured his spot in the Rockies' injury-ravaged rotation with a dominant effort at loanDepot park in Miami. He needed just 77 pitches (51 strikes) to navigate the five scoreless frames. Up next is another favorable matchup against the Athletics, though that game will be played at hitter-friendly Coors Field and Lambert carries an overall 5.49 ERA in 39.1 major-league innings this year.

Lambert was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

He will start for the Rockies on Friday in Miami, taking the rotation spot vacated by Connor Seabold, who has been demoted to the bullpen. Lambert is no safe bet to be an upgrade, having collected a 6.29 ERA in 34.1 innings of work this season at the major-league level.

Lambert will be called up from Triple-A Albuquerque to start Friday at Miami, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Saunders adds that Connor Seabold has been demoted to the Rockies' bullpen. Lambert holds an ugly 6.29 ERA in 34.1 innings of work this season at the major-league level, but he pitched pretty well in his last two starts with Albuquerque, scattering three earned runs while tallying eight strikeouts across 8.1 frames.

Lambert was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Lambert covered three scoreless innings as Colorado's opening pitcher in Saturday's loss to the Tigers, but he's now being sent down in favor of a fresh arm. The 26-year-old has a 6.29 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 36:15 K:BB across 34.1 innings with the Rockies this season, mostly while working as a reliever. According to Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post, the Rockies plan to give Lambert a longer look in the rotation following the All-Star break, but the right-hander will first get stretched out over the course of about three starts with Albuquerque.

Lambert allowed two hits and a walk while striking out two over three scoreless innings in Saturday's extra-inning loss to the Tigers. He did not factor in the decision.

EDGE Analysis

The Rockies utilized a bullpen game Saturday, and Lambert covered the most innings as the opener. Three of his five scoreless outings this season have come in his last five appearances. He's also given up multiple runs in seven of his 15 outings. The right-hander remains a multi-inning option out of the bullpen. He's pitched to a lackluster 6.29 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 36:15 K:BB through 34.1 innings while posting a 1-1 record this year.

Lambert will serve as the opener for Saturday's game against the Tigers, Manny Randhawa of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Rockies will be utilizing their bullpen to get through the game, but Lambert will start the contest. He has pitched as many as 3.1 innings this season, though both of his most recent outings have lasted only one frame. He's unlikely to work deep enough into the game to qualify for the win.

Lambert was recalled Thursday from Triple-A Albuquerque.

EDGE Analysis

He will replace Dinelson Lamet (back) in the Rockies' bullpen ahead of Thursday's series finale against the visiting Brewers. Lambert spent some time in the majors last month but did not make an appearance.

Colorado optioned Lambert to Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Lambert was recalled Tuesday from Triple-A Albuquerque.

EDGE Analysis

Lambert had posted a 3.68 ERA and 5:4 K:BB through 7.1 innings (three starts) this season at the Triple-A level. He'll presumably operate in a long relief with the Rockies as he makes his way back to the MLB level for the first time since 2021.

Lambert was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque by the Rockies on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Lambert will begin the year in Triple-A after missing the majority of the last two seasons with injuries, including Tommy John surgery in 2020. The right-hander will have his innings limited to begin the campaign, but he could be a rotation option for Colorado by the time 2023 comes to a close.
