Ryan McMahon Called Up, Starting Saturday
7 years agoColorado Rockies infielder Ryan McMahon has been called up and is slotted to start at second base on Saturday. McMahon has been toiling away at Triple-A ever since he got off to a rocky start early in the season. However, with DJ LeMahieu sidelined for an unknown period of time, the team felt they had to make a move since his replacements weren't hitting .200 between them. McMahon hit just .180 over the course of 28 games earlier in the year, but he had a strong ability to walk and hit .374 for Triple-A Albuquerque last season. Pat Valaika was optioned in a corresponding move.
