The Colorado Rockies are dealing with their yearly injury problems as we have seen multiple key players get hurt within the past month. Most notably, Nolan Arenado injured his left middle finger sliding into second base head first against the Atlanta Braves and was placed on the 15-day disabled list. His presence at the hot corner and at the place has been desperately missed.
