Elias Díaz Stats

Colorado Rockies catcher Elias Diaz isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Texas Rangers and left-hander Martin Perez. The 31-year-old is hitting .235 with a .297 on-base percentage and seven home runs in 286 plate appearances this season. He started Tuesday's game but will head to the bench with Brian Serven getting the start behind the plate. Serven has connected on six home runs in 154 plate appearances this season and is batting .229 with a .294 on-base percentage. He'll hit eighth against the Rangers and could be worth a look as a streaming option for fantasy managers in deeper leagues.

Colorado Rockies catcher Elias Diaz (hand) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Sunday. The 31-year-old backstop hit the IL back on August 11 with ligament damage in his right hand. It was a minimum stay on the injured list for Diaz who's slashing .230/.294/.371 with six home runs and 33 RBI across 256 at-bats for the Rockies this year. Brian Serven is starting behind the plate on Sunday for Colorado but Diaz should start rotating back into the lineup as early as Tuesday vs. the Texas Rangers.

Colorado Rockies catcher Elias Diaz (hand) exited early during Wednesday's matchup against the St. Louis Cardinals. The 31-year-old aggravated his right hand, while swinging during the contest. The organization did further testing and it revealed damage in his right hand. That being said, the Rockies are almost certainly going to place Diaz on the injured list. Dom Nunez should take his place on the roster, but he doesn't offer much upside with the bat. Brian Serven will likely get a majority of the starts behind home plate. He's a little better with the bat, but shouldn't be considered a reliable fantasy option.
