The Rockies announced the selection of infielder Vimael Machin’s contract, coinciding with Willi Castro being placed on the 10-day injured list due to left heel inflammation. Castro, who has not played since Monday due to plantar fasciitis and a sore knee, may be done for the season, finishing with a .260/.331/.417 line and 15 home runs. Machin, who performed well in Triple-A with a .290/.371/.445 line, has primarily played third base but will fill in for Castro’s utility role as the Rockies prioritize younger players during their rebuilding phase.
