Nick Hundley

Nick Hundley (head) now out of Rockies' lineup

Colorado Rockies catcher Nick Hundley (head) is not in the starting lineup Thursday versus the San Francisco Giants.

What It Means:

We reported earlier Hundley would play Thursday, but he apparently isn't healthy enough to start. Hundley took a hard foul tip off his mask on Wednesday night and is still going through MLB's concussion protocol. Tony Wolters is starting at catcher and batting eighth against Giants right-hander Matt Cain.

Hundley slashed .301/.339/.467 with 10 home runs in 389 plate appearances last season. His .348 wOBA ranked second among catchers with at least 350 plate appearances. We project similar numbers for Hundley in 2016, forecasting him for a .331 wOBA with 10 home runs across 385 plate appearances.
