Rockies' Trevor Story: Placed on disabled list

Story was placed on the DL on Thursday with a strained left shoulder, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.

Story was withheld from Wednesday's lineup, and it would appear that his shoulder injury was the contributing factor behind his absence. Story's season has gotten off to a slow start, as he's slashing .180/.289/.396 and owns a dismal 37.5 percent K-rate. The Rockies have yet to elaborate on the severity of Story's injury, but more information should become available soon. With Story on the disabled list, look for Pat Valaika and Alexi Amarista to see time at shortstop.
