The Colorado Rockies have placed outfielder Brenton Doyle (quad) on the bereavement list, and he'll miss the next 3-to-7 games. The former fourth-round pick had previously been out of the team's lineup due to a quad injury, missing six games. However, he did come off the bench Wednesday as a pinch-hitter against the Los Angeles Dodgers. It's unfortunate news for Doyle, as he's started off 2025 hot at the dish -- batting a strong .315 (17-for-54) with three home runs, 12 RBI, and seven runs scored. The Rockies have a day off on Monday, so the Virginia native may rejoin the team then, barring he's completely over his quadricep injury.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (quadriceps) will miss his sixth straight game in Wednesday's series finale against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers. Doyle continues to recover from left-quadriceps soreness, but with a day off on Thursday, his fantasy managers will be hoping that he'll be feeling good enough to return to the field for Friday's series opener against the Washington Nationals. But if the 26-year-old is unable to go on Friday or at some point over the weekend, this could turn into an injured-list situation. The former fourth-rounder is a fantasy stud when healthy and is currently batting .321 (17-for-53) with three home runs, 12 RBI, a steal and seven runs scored. Doyle is a must-start in fantasy if he's active. Mickey Moniak is starting in center field and is hitting seventh on Wednesday against Dodgers right-hander Bobby Miller, who is making his first MLB start of 2025.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (quadriceps) is missing from Tuesday's lineup against the Dodgers. This is now his fifth straight missed game with a sore left quad, with Mickey Moniak picking up another start in center field. Despite the lengthy absence, Doyle isn't expected to require an IL stint and remains day-to-day. He's carried over his breakout performance from 2024 into this season so far, batting .321 with three homers through 12 games.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (quad) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Doyle will now miss his fourth game in a row due to left quad tightness. For now, Doyle is being tagged as day-to-day, but the organization should consider placing him on the injured list. Doyle reportedly experienced soreness in his quad while running on Monday. It doesn't sound like he's healthy enough to get back on the field yet. Fantasy managers should continue to hold Doyle who is hitting .321 with three homers and 12 RBI this season. Mickey Moniak will cover center field and bat sixth versus right-hander Dustin May on Monday.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (quadriceps) is not in the starting lineup on Sunday when the Rockies conclude a series against the San Diego Padres. Doyle was unable to play in the first two games of the series and could be facing an extended absence. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status leading up to their next game on Monday evening against the Los Angeles Dodgers. With Doyle sitting out, Mickey Moniak will get the starting nod in center field and bat in the six-hole. Before his injury, Doyle was enjoying an impressive start to the campaign, posting a .321/.357/.547 slash line with three doubles, three home runs, and one stolen base. If Doyle were to continue to remain sidelined, Moniak should see most of the opportunities in center field. Moniak is not worth considering in DFS this afternoon, facing San Diego right-hander Michael King.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (quadriceps) was just heating up lately at the plate, but he missed the team's last two games in San Diego with a slight quad issue. The Rockies are hoping the issue clears up in a day or two and that he can avoid the injured list. He was going to be replaced in center field on Saturday by Tyler Freeman, but Freeman tweaked his oblique injury in the batting cage before the game. Without Freeman, Mickey Moniak got the call in center field on Saturday and could continue to get more playing time. If either outfielder needs time on the IL, one prospect who could join the team is Adael Amador from the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes. Doyle's injury has over-stretched the Rockies' already-thin offense, making them a very favorable matchup to target on the road away from Coors Field.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres. It's extremely odd to see Doyle sitting out for two straight games. The right-handed slugger has been excellent with a .312 batting average, three home runs, and 12 RBI in 12 contests this season. Instead, Tyler Freeman will cover center field and bat seventh versus left-hander Kyle Hart on Saturday. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor this situation, but maybe this is just some extra rest for Doyle.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle will get the day off for Friday's series opener at Petco Park against the division-rival San Diego Padres. With Doyle starting on the bench, Mickey Moniak will start in center field and will hit ninth in the batting order versus Padres right-hander Nick Pivetta. Doyle is currently riding a modest seven-game hitting streak and is coming off a 3-for-5 performance with a double, home run and five RBI in Thursday's win over the Milwaukee Brewers. The 26-year-old rising star is off to a great start in 2025 and is currently slashing .302/.339/.528 with an .868 OPS, three home runs, 12 RBI, one run scored and one stolen base in 53 at-bats. Doyle can do it all and is a must-start in fantasy when he's active. Moniak will be a low-upside DFS play in the nine-hole in his return home to San Diego. He's gone 5-for-19 with a homer, two RBI and four runs in the early going for Colorado.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle continued his strong start to the early season and filled the stat sheet in Thursday's 7-2 victory over the visiting Milwaukee Brewers, going 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, two runs scored, five RBI and a strikeout to raise his season average to .302 and his OPS to .867. Doyle's third home run of the year came right away in the bottom of the first inning at Coors Field against right-hander Quinn Priester, who was making his first start of the year for the Brew Crew. Three of his five RBI on the day came on a double in the eighth inning to put the game away essentially. The 26-year-old center fielder got off to a 2-for-13 start early on, but he's quickly turned things around at the plate, proving why he's a must-start in all fantasy leagues. Doyle certainly ruled in Thursday's series finale against Milwaukee.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle went 1-for-3 with a home run in Tuesday's 7-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. The 26-year-old also walked and struck out once while stealing his first base of the season. Doyle was the Rockies' only offense on a day when they struck out more times (14) than they got hits (5) and were held hitless past the seventh inning. He's been solid in the early going, holding a respectable .273 batting average with two long balls, two doubles, and one theft. While it'd be nice to see him walk a bit more (6.4%), the Shepherd University alum has cut his strikeout rate for a second consecutive season to an efficient 17.0%.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle had a productive day at the plate in Sunday's 12-5 win over the Athletics, going 3-for-5 with a double, a solo home run, four RBI, and three runs scored. It is the second three-hit game of the season for the 26-year-old, and he's collected a hit in seven of nine games, now hitting .268 with five RBI and four runs scored on the young season. A 4.7 percent walk rate on the year (career 6.5 percent) has limited his ability to get on base, which also appears to have hindered his stolen base production, much to the chagrin of fantasy managers who were counting on that when they drafted thespeedster who owns a 91st-percentile sprint speed and swiped 30 bags in 2024. His next chance will come on Tuesday against the Brewers, however, the former fourth-round draft pick will face Freddy Peralta, whom he is 0-for-5 off of in his career with four strikeouts.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle went 1-for-5 with a double in Thursday's contest against the Philadelphia Phillies. The double was his first extra base hit of the young season, and hopefully, it will provide a spark to his bat as he's gotten off to a slow start in the power department thus far. On the season, Doyle holds a .240/.296/.280 line, and although he is getting a few hits, he is not getting on base or hitting for the type of power fantasy managers are hoping for. Last season, Doyle enjoyed a solid campaign where he hit .260/.317/.446, so fantasy managers should expect some progression soon. No better time than a trip back home to Coors Field, where the Rockies will take on the Athletics this weekend. Look for Doyle to have a good series this weekend.

Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said on Wednesday that he plans to bat outfielder Brenton Doyle in the leadoff spot in 2025. Doyle saw most of his plate appearances from the three-hole in 2024. In fact, he only had 14 games out of the leadoff spot and hit a lowly .120 (6-for-50) with a homer, seven RBI and three runs scored. The 26-year-old will see more trips to the plate batting regularly out of the leadoff spot and should score more runs, but it will also limit his RBI opportunities. The former fourth-rounder had a breakout campaign in just his second season in the big leagues, slashing .260/.317/.446 with a .764 OPS, 23 home runs, 72 RBI, 30 stolen bases and 82 runs scored in 149 games. Doyle was one of the biggest surprise performers in 2024 and will now look to follow it up with another solid performance. His power/speed combo at hitter-friendly Coors Field after his 2024 breakout will make him expensive.

After returning to the lineup on Tuesday after missing the weekend series against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers due to a knee issue, Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle will get a day to rest for Thursday's series finale at Coors Field versus the St. Louis Cardinals. Sam Hilliard is getting the starting nod in center field and is batting sixth for the Rockies against Cardinals right-hander Kyle Gibson. The 26-year-old Doyle has been the most relevant fantasy player in the thin air of Colorado this year with a .262/.318/.450 slash line, .768 OPS, 23 home runs, 72 RBI, 29 stolen bases and 82 runs scored in 538 total at-bats. He should be back in there on Friday for the series opener versus the Dodgers at Coors Field. Hilliard has never faced Gibson in his career and enters the contest with nine long balls, 26 RBI and five stolen bases in his 130 at-bats in 2024.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (knee) is starting in center field and is batting third for the Rockies on Tuesday at Coors Field against the St. Louis Cardinals and rookie right-hander Michael McGreevy. Doyle will return on Tuesday after missing the three-game series over the weekend versus the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers due to right-knee soreness. The 26-year-old will now hope to finish off the 2024 season on a strong note in the final few days. Even if he doesn't, it's been a standout year for Doyle, who comes into Tuesday's contest with a .264/.321/.449 slash line, .770 OPS, 22 home runs, 71 RBI, 29 stolen bases and 81 runs scored in 145 games in just his second year in the majors. Doyle's power-speed combination at Coors Field will make him a popular fantasy outfielder heading into 2025 drafts.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (knee) remains out of the starting nine as the Rockies look to clinch a series victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Doyle will now miss his third consecutive game due to knee soreness. As a result, Sam Hilliard will cover center field this afternoon and bat in the sixth-hole. Doyle has had a great sophomore campaign where he has hit for a solid .264/.321/.449 line with 22 home runs and 29 stolen bases. The 26-year-old will likely be a popular pick in drafts next spring given his potential to contribute to all five standard categories. Hillard should be faded in DFS lineups this afternoon as he will face Dodger right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto who carries a strong 2.63 ERA into Sunday's match.

Colorado Rockies center fielder Brenton Doyle (knee) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Friday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium due to left-knee soreness. With Doyle taking the night off, Sam Hilliard will make the start in center field and will hit seventh against Dodgers right-handed opener Ryan Brasier. For now, fantasy managers should consider Doyle to be day-to-day and check back on his status on Saturday to see if he's available. Hilliard has never faced Brasier in his career and is hitting .259 (29-for-112) in 2024 in a part-time role with eight long balls, 25 RBI and four stolen bases in 50 games in his return to Colorado after spending the first four seasons of his career with the Rockies. Hilliard comes into Friday's game riding a three-game hitting streak in which he's gone 4-for-8 with a homer and four RBI.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (finger) is in center field and is batting third for the Rockies on Tuesday against the Detroit Tigers and rookie right-hander Keider Montero at Comerica Park. A minor injury to his pinkie kept Doyle out of the team's last game, but he's back in there now and should be returned to starting lineups in all fantasy leagues. Doyle has gone only 3-for-21 (.143) with a walk and nine strikeouts in six games so far in September, but he's quickly proven to be the most impressive fantasy bat the last-place Rockies have to offer. In 136 games in just his second big-league season in 2024, Doyle has slashed .268/.328/.465 with a .793 OPS, 22 home runs, 66 RBI and 26 stolen bases in 553 plate appearances. His power/speed combination plays in all formats. Doyle has never faced Montero in his young career.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (finger) will remain out of the starting nine on Sunday as the Rockies look to clinch a series victory over the Milwaukee Brewers. Doyle left Saturday's match early after injuring his finger when attempting to make a catch. As a result, 30-year-old Sam Hillard will cover center field on Sunday afternoon. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Doyle's status as we enter the new week. Doyle has enjoyed a great 2024 season boasting a .268 AVG with 22 round-tripper and 26 stolen bases. Hillard has enjoyed a nice surge at the plate as of late, riding a .278 AVG and a .722 SLG. However, he has a difficult matchup against Milwaukee right-hander Freddy Peralta.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (knee) is back in center field and is hitting cleanup for Colorado on Wednesday at Coors Field against Miami Marlins right-hander Max Meyer. Doyle will return to the starting lineup on Wednesday after sitting out the first two games of the series against the Fish due left-patellar tendinitis. It's something that the 26-year-old dealt with earlier this year as well, so it's worth watching moving forward. But for now, fantasy managers will want to get him right back into their starting lineups everywhere as Colorado's most potent fantasy name. He has taken the next step in his second MLB season in 2024, already reaching the 20/20 mark while delivering 63 RBI and 74 runs scored in 126 games. Doyle has hit .304 (14-for-46) with a homer, four RBI and three steals in his last 12 games since Aug. 12.
