Taking his place on the roster will be Ben Paulsen who is batting .256 with three homers and 15 RBI in 125 at-bats this season for Albuquerque.
Colorado hopes to even their series with Philadelphia on Tuesday night at Coors Field. The Rockies rallied in the 8th and 9th innings Monday, but could not even things up, eventually falling to the Phillies 4-3. First pitch on Tuesday is 6:40 p.m.
Colorado currently has the fewest wins in Major League Baseball with just 13 on the season.
