Availability
Mickey Moniak said he should be available for the Colorado Rockies’ home opener against the Philadelphia Phillies on April 3.
Fantasy Impact
Moniak is currently on the 10-day IL with a sprained right ring finger but is expected to return when eligible on April 3. He is coming off a career year, posting a .270/.306/.518 slash line with 24 home runs in 434 at-bats.
The Colorado Rockies placed Mickey Moniak on the 10-day injured list on Friday due to a sprained right finger, retroactive to March 24.
Fantasy Impact
Moniak suffered the injury during Monday’s spring training game while diving back into first base. While he is sidelined, Edouard Julien is expected to take over as the Rockies’ designated hitter against right-handed pitchers. In a corresponding move, Braxton Fulford was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque.
Moniak (illness) is dealing with an illness. Colorado held him out of Tuesday's Cactus League game against Cincinnati.
Fantasy Impact
Jake McCarthy moved from left field to center field with Charlie Condon entering the lineup in left field to account for Moniak's absence.
Moniak (oblique) hit .270/.306/.518 with 24 home runs in 2025, his first campaign with Colorado. Right oblique tightness has resulted in a cautious approach during camp, but he has been cleared to play.
Fantasy Impact
He will bat leadoff and serve as the designated hitter in Wednesday's Cactus League game against the Cubs. Moniak is projected to receive consistent playing time against right-handed pitchers in 2026.
Mickey Moniak (oblique) has been slowed by right oblique tightness thus far but has begun to take live batting practice and could make his Cactus League debut this week.
Fantasy Impact
Moniak enjoyed a breakout season in his first year with Colorado as he batted .270 with 24 home runs, 68 RBI, and nine stolen bases in 135 games last year. The outfielder is a career .243 hitter with 56 home runs in 1,369 plate appearances with the Phillies, Angels, and Rockies. As long as he's healthy, he'll assume an everyday role in the Rockies' outfield. He played more than half of his games in right field, but also has left field and center field eligibility if your league breaks up the outfield positions.
