Decolati went 2-for-4 with a triple and an RBI for Low-A Asheville on Wednesday.
Decolati missed the early part of the season with a broken wrist, but he's been raking over four games since his return, as he's now roped 10 hits in first 18 at-bats. So far, the 2018 sixth-round pick has carried over the strong form at the dish he showed last season over 263 at-bats in the Pioneer League, when he posted a .947 OPS, cranked 11 homers and stole 17 bases.

Rockies' Niko Decolati: Out with undisclosed injury
Rotowire
Decolati is on the 7-day IL at Low-A Asheville with an undisclosed injury, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports.
A 21-year-old third baseman turned right fielder, Decolati's plus speed led to 17 steals on 22 attempts in 69 games in the Pioneer League last year after he was selected by the Rockies in the sixth round of the draft. Assuming he is able to return this season from this undisclosed injury, he should be able to put up impressive numbers at the hitter-friendly ballpark in Asheville.
