Dom Nuñez News
Colorado Rockies catcher Dom Nunez has been optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday. Colorado needed to clear a space on the roster following Elias Diaz's (hand) activation from the 10-day injured list. Nunez is slashing just .121/.244/.152 across 33 at-bats in the majors this season. Diaz and Brian Serven will split duties behind the plate for the Rockies the rest of the way.
Colorado Rockies catcher Dom Nunez went 1-for-3 with a double, two RBI, one run scored, a walk, and two strikeouts in a 5-4 loss to the Diamondbacks on Sunday. Nunez put the Rockies on the board in the top of the second inning with a two-run double. He would go on to score later that inning. He also reached base later in the contest with a walk. The 26-year-old backstop got off to a hot start back in April but fell off a cliff the rest of the way. He was outperformed by Elias Diaz for most of the season and finished with a .189 batting average, .692 OPS, 10 home runs, and 33 RBI over 228 at-bats.
Colorado Rockies catcher Dom Nunez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 7-5 win over the San Diego Padres on Wednesday. Nunez gave the Rockies a temporary lead in the bottom of the fourth inning when he took Jake Arrieta deep for a solo home run to make the score 5-4. It was his eighth homer of the season and his only hit of the ball game. The 26-year-old backstop is now batting a meager .176 with a .662 OPS, eight home runs, and 28 RBI across 182 at-bats this season. Elias Diaz is the catcher to roster in Colorado but he's more of a two-catcher league option.
