Elehuris Montero Stats

The Colorado Rockies recalled infielder Elehuris Montero and left-hander Ty Blach from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday. The team also added right-hander Ryan Feltner as the 27th man for Tuesday's doubleheader against the San Diego Padres, and he will start in Game 1. Montero, the team's No. 6 prospect per MLB Pipeline, will give the team another right-handed bat with Kris Bryant (foot) landing on the injured list on Monday night. The 23-year-old Dominican has gone 6-for-34 (.176) with no homers, no RBI and 15 strikeouts in his first 11 major league games, and he's unlikely to see regular playing time. Feltner has a 5.59 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 35 strikeouts in 37 innings over eight outings (seven starts) for the Rockies in 2022. He'll be a shaky streaming option in fantasy.

The Colorado Rockies recalled third base prospect Elehuris Montero from the minors on Tuesday and optioned right-hander Chad Smith in a corresponding move. This will be Montero, the team's No. 5 prospect per MLB Pipeline, second call-up of his rookie season. In four previous games for the Rockies this year, the 23-year-old went 2-for-13 with no home runs, RBI or runs scored. He was hitting .327/.395/.563 with a .958 OPS, 13 home runs, 43 RBI, 35 runs scored and three stolen bases in 53 games for Triple-A Albuquerque, but he's expected to be more of a utility infielder in his second major league call-up. It might be another short stint with the Rockies, too, with Kris Bryant expected to rejoin the team shortly. Fantasy managers in standard single-year mixed leagues shouldn't spend a ton on Montero.

Colorado Rockies third base prospect Elehuris Montero went 4-for-6 with four runs, one home run and two RBI for Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday. One of the returns in the Nolan Arenado trade last season, Montero has been swinging the bat well this season. On the season, the third baseman is hitting .301 with eight home runs, 21 RBI and a pair of stolen bases. The 23-year-old got a cup of coffee in the big leagues earlier this season, but only got four at-bats and figures to see more time in the show before the season ends. Montero would be worth a flier in redraft leagues and he is worth rostering in dynasty leagues at the moment.
