Agnos (elbow) said that he hopes to resume playing catch Monday, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos has been shut down from throwing since landing on the injured list July 27 due to right flexor strain, but he appears to be close to taking the first notable step forward in his recovery process. As a reliever, Agnos won't require an extended build-up period once he starts throwing, but he still appears unlikely to rejoin the Colorado bullpen before the end of August.

The Rockies placed Agnos on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right elbow flexor strain.

EDGE Analysis

During his relief appearance in Saturday's 18-0 loss to the Orioles, Agnos retired just one of the five batters he faced and was charged with four earned runs before being pulled from the game due to an unspecified arm injury. After further evaluation, the Rockies determined that Agnos was dealing with an elbow strain, an injury that will most likely keep him on the shelf beyond the minimum 15 days. Colorado recalled righty Jaden Hill from Triple-A Albuquerque to take over Agnos' spot in the bullpen.

Agnos was removed from Saturday's matchup versus Baltimore with an apparent right arm injury, Christian Saez of TheDNVR.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After throwing a pitch in the seventh inning, Agnos began shaking his right arm and motioned to the dugout. He was quickly pulled from the contest after having thrown 24 pitches, 13 of which were balls, and giving up four runs on two hits and two walks while retiring just one batter. It's been a rough campaign for Agnos, as he's posted a 6.98 ERA with a 17:16 K:BB over 29.2 frames with Colorado.

The Rockies recalled Agnos from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos served as the Rockies' closer for a stretch earlier this season but was sent down after being scored upon in four straight outings. He appeared to get back on track at Albuquerque, permitting one run with a 4:1 K:BB in four frames. Agnos could re-enter the late-inning mix for the Rockies but is unlikely to be a frontrunner for saves right away.

The Rockies optioned Agnos to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos leads the Rockies with four saves this season, but his ratios (5.48 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 3.3 K-BB% in 21.1 innings) have left much to be desired. After Agnos allowed runs in each of his last four appearances, the Rockies will have the 24-year-old righty report to the organization's performance lab in Arizona to hone his mechanics before he heads to Albuquerque, per Thomas Harding of MLB.com. Seth Halvorsen, Tyler Kinley, Victor Vodnik and Jake Bird look to be the Rockies' top high-leverage relievers, but mining for saves on a 13-57 squad could prove to be a fruitless endeavor for fantasy managers.

Agnos allowed three earned runs on one hit and two walks over one inning Wednesday against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos relieved Tyler Kinley with one out in the eighth inning after the latter blew a three-run lead. Agnos surrendered a run on a sacrifice bunt but didn't allow any additional baserunners in the frame. However, he came back out for the ninth inning and allowed three of the first four batters he faced to reach base before being pulled. Agnos has been sharing save opportunities with Seth Halvorsen for the last several weeks but has now allowed 10 earned runs across his last 3.1 innings (four appearances), so the latter could be in line for the next few chances.

Agnos (0-3) took the loss in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Giants. He allowed four runs on one hit and three walks with no strikeouts over one-third of an inning.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos entered the ninth inning with a four-run lead but quickly ran into trouble, surrendering a solo homer to Casey Schmitt and then walking the bases loaded with one out. He was then replaced by Victor Vodnik, who allowed all three inherited runners to score. Agnos entered Tuesday with a 2.70 ERA and 1.05 WHIP, but those marks ballooned to 4.43 and 1.23, respectively, over 20.1 innings this season following the disastrous outing.

Agnos (0-2) took the loss against the Mets on Friday after allowing two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out two in the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos was brought in for the ninth to keep the game tied at 2-2. He started off nicely by striking out Starling Marte, but he proceeded to let the next two batters on base before giving up a two-run double to Francisco Lindor (toe). It was the first time this season that Agnos yielded two runs in a game this season, and the 24-year-old right-hander is up to a 2.37 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 10:3 K:BB across 19 innings.

The Rockies reinstated Agnos (personal) from the bereavement list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos has rejoined the team ahead of its three-game homestand against the Mets after going on the bereavement list earlier this week. The closer has logged a 1.50 ERA and a 0.83 WHIP in 18 innings this season.

The Rockies placed Agnos (personal) on the bereavement list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Agnos secured his fourth save of the season Monday in Miami with a scoreless ninth inning, but he'll now step away from the team for a few days for personal reasons. Players can be on the bereavement list for 3-to-7 days, so the right-hander could be back on the active roster for Friday's series opener versus the Mets.
