COL is playing .500 ball and have come out of the All-Star break strongly. Unfortunately, bad news hit on Tuesday when Rookie of the Year candidate Trevor Story (SS, COL) went down with a torn thumb ligament. While we said Daniel Descalso (SS, COL) could see increased PT in the OF a couple of weeks ago, Story's injury opens the door for him to have a full-time SS role moving forward.
