Brendan Rodgers Sitting On Wednesday
8 months agoColorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers is not in the starting lineup when his team takes on the Chicago Cubs and left-hander Luke Little. The 27-year-old has been deployed as the team's cleanup hitter this season but is off to a rough start as he is just 3-for-25 with seven strikeouts against zero walks in his 25 trips to the plate. The oft-injured former top prospect hit .258 with four homers in just 46 games in the 2023 season and has largely underperformed to this point in his big-league career. Rodgers has hit .262 with 32 homers alongside a .718 OPS despite playing his home games in the league's hitter-friendliest park at Coors Field in Denver.
