Troy Tulowitzki is not in Sunday's lineup due to a sore oblique. Tulo hurt himself on a swing during Saturday's game. It doesn't sound like a stint on the disabled list will be required at this point, but he'll surely miss at least a few days just to be safe. Jonathan Herrera is starting at shortstop Sunday.

Troy Tulowitzki went 1-for-4 with a home run against the Phillies on Tuesday. Tulowitzki homered for his second straight game and 23rd time overall. The shortstop has a seven-game hitting streak, raising his average to .315. And the 28-year-old's current .959 OPS would be the highest of his career, which is saying something.

Troy Tulowitzki went 2-for-3 with a homer and a walk against the Phillies on Monday. Tulo doesn't steal bases like he used to, but he's hit .313 with 21 homers in his 94 games this year. Teammate Carlos Gonzalez is the only batting-title qualifier with a higher OPS than Tulowitzki's .956 mark. Tulo, though, is still 12 plate appearances short of qualifying.

Troy Tulowitzki is batting just .208/.300/.365 with four homers and 14 RBI over 110 plate appearances since he was activated from the disabled list on July 11. Tulowitzki is hitting .179 with one homer over 48 plate appearances in August. We aren't concerned with the All-Star shortstop, in part because he's been straddled with a .239 BABIP over 29 games since his activation. Also, he's one of the best players in baseball. Tulo's current .932 OPS is the second best of his career.

Troy Tulowitzki homered and drove home a pair of runs, powering the Rockies to a 4-2 victory over the Pirates on Friday evening. Tulowitzki finished the night 2-for-3 with a double, walk and a pair of runs scored as well. Injuries have limited him to only 79 games on the season, but he's been a monster when he's in the lineup, hitting a blistering .324/.388/.599 with 20 homers and 61 RBI. Fantasy owners can stomach the disappointment of Tulo only swiping one base on the season, with his other numbers being so strong.

Troy Tulowitzki was ejected from Thursday's game against the Braves for arguing balls and strikes. Tulowitzki didn't like a called third strike from home plate umpire Marvin Hudson, who ejected the shortstop after a brief discussion. It's not something that will lead to a suspension for Tulo.

Truy Tulowitzki is not in the Rockies' lineup Thursday. It's a routine day of rest for Tulowitzki. He is batting .328/.393/.594 with 17 home runs and 55 RBI.
