Rockies Recall Michael Toglia, DFA Keston Hiura
The Colorado Rockies announced that they have designated first baseman Keston Hiura for assignment at Triple-A Albuquerque and recalled first baseman Michael Toglia to the big-league roster. A few weeks ago, Toglia was optioned to the Isotopes after compiling an abysmal .194/.266/.349 slash line through 54 games. With Hiura failing to perform much better (.222/.333/.278) through his first eight appearances, and Toglia batting a fine .273 (12-for-44) in Triple-A, Colorado reversed the transaction. The former No. 23 overall pick should step back into an everyday role at first base for the Rockies with the hopes that his brief demotion breaks him out of an early-season slump.
