Rockies' Ezequiel Tovar: Joins 40-man roster

Tovar was added to the Rockies' 40-man roster Friday.

The move means Tovar won't be available for selection in the upcoming Rule 5 draft. He's still far from his major-league debut, as he struggled significantly upon his promotion to High-A Spokane, hitting .239/.266/.396 in 32 games.
