DJ LeMahieu being held out of Rockies' lineup with wrist inflammation

DJ LeMahieu was scratched from the Rockies' lineup Tuesday due to left wrist inflammation.

What It Means:

LeMahieu is potentially facing a multi-game absence. For tonight, Daniel Descalso is starting at second and hitting sixth against the Milwaukee Brewers and right-hander Chase Anderson.

The 28-year-old owns a .344/.416/.501 slash on the year, with a .393 wOBA and .157 ISO, all of which are career-best marks. The nine home runs are also the most in a season for LeMahieu, and we project him to hit two more with a .780 OPS in 149 more appearances at the plate this season.
