Michael Soroka draws Rockies as he returns to D-backs' rotation
Arizona right-hander Michael Soroka is scheduled to return from the injured list to start against the Colorado Rockies on Monday in Phoenix. Soroka has posted an 8-3 record with a 3.07 ERA over fifteen appearances during his debut season with the Diamondbacks. He missed nearly two months due to a strained left glute muscle sustained during a June start against Minnesota. His early success followed a mechanical adjustment involving a lower release point and increased reliance on a sweeping curveball. The Diamondbacks enter the three-game series following a successful homestand against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo praised his squad for securing a vital series win amidst a tight National League wild-card race. Meanwhile, rookie right-hander Gabriel Hughes takes the mound for the Rockies following a tough outing against Tampa Bay. Colorado enters the matchup looking to reverse a difficult stretch of losses during the regular season.
