Matt Chapman Back in Action on Monday
Matt Chapman (foot, shin) is starting at third base and batting fifth for Monday's series opener against the hosting Colorado Rockies and right-hander Chase Dollander at Coors Field. Chapman was pulled out of Sunday's series finale against the Baltimore Orioles early after he fouled a ball off his foot/shin, but he avoided any broken bones and is feeling fine to play a day later. Although the 32-year-old veteran isn't having quite the year that fantasy managers had hoped for, he should be in starting lineups to begin the week at one of the most hitter-friendly environments in baseball against an inexperienced pitcher. The former first-rounder is two homers shy of a 20-homer season, but he also hit just .203 (13-for-64) with two homers, eight RBI and two steals in 19 games in the month of August.
