Rockies' Trevor Story to undergo season-ending thumb surgery
Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story will undergo season-ending surgery to repair the torn UCL in his left thumb.
What It Means:
Christian Adames is the probable replacement at shortstop for the Rockies moving forward. Story will wrap up his stellar 2016 rookie campaign with 27 home runs, 72 RBI's and a .909 OPS across 415 plate appearances. His .380 wOBA ranks 19th in the bigs, while his .296 ISO is the third-highest. Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager is now an easy frontrunner for Rookie of the Year honors in the National League.
Story currently ranks 22nd in the majors with a 2.45 nERD. The Rockies are 4.5 games out of a playoff spot and we give them just a 2.80 percent chance of making the postseason. Story's absence certainly won't help these odds.
