DJ LeMahieu is a nice deep league add
by Nando Di Fino | Senior Fantasy Writer

With the Rockies demoting Josh Rutledge on Wednesday, DJ LeMahieu is expected to take over the starting second base job. Owned in six percent of leagues, it might benefit an owner in a deeper format to take a closer look at the 24-year-old. 

LeMahieu has never hit below .314 in any of his five minor league campaigns (he has a .321 career minor league BA). In 306 major league at-bats, he has a .294 average. I wouldn't expect much in the way of power or speed from LeMahieu, but 20 doubles the rest of the way (assuming he gets regular at-bats) wouldn't be out of the question, and you can pretty much bank on the average to be there. 

In NL-only, he's a must-add. But I would consider adding him in formats as shallow as 15-team Roto leagues (at MI or UT), based on his promise in batting average.

Carlos Gonzalez carries the offense in win
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com

Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez accounted for three runs in a 4-1 victory Wednesday over the Diamondbacks.

Gonzalez had a solo home run in the first inning and added an RBI triple in the third. He then scored on a wild pitch for the Rockies' final run. He went 2 for 4 with two RBI and two runs scored.

Gonzalez is hitting .302 with a .977 on-base plus slugging percentage.

Michael Cuddyer expected back Friday
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com

The Rockies appeared to clear space on the active roster for Michael Cuddyer's activation from the disabled list Wednesday, as they optioned infielder Josh Rutledge to Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Cuddyer is recovering from an inflamed disk in his neck but should be in the starting lineup Friday against the Giants.

DJ LeMahieu looking at increased playing time
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com

With Josh Rutledge's demotion to Triple-A Wednesday, Rockies infielder DJ LeMahieu is expected to assume a starting role.

LeMahieu has started four of seven games since being called up May 16, and he is hitting .412 with two extra-base hits and two RBI in 17 at-bats. He will likely be the full-time starter at second base with Rutledge gone.

Josh Rutledge heading down to Triple-A
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com

With Michael Cuddyer returning from the disabled list Friday, the Rockies announced Wednesday that infielder Josh Rutledge has been optioned to Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Rutledge is batting .242 with a .655 OPS. He has yet to play in Triple-A after making the jump from Double-A last season. DJ LeMahieu is expected to take Rutledge's place in the starting lineup. 

Rutledge has five home runs and 13 RBI in 43 games.
