It was a quiet night for most of Colorado’s higher minor league teams, but in Grand Junction two PuRPs, Daniel Montano (no. 14 PuRP) and Ryan Rolison (no. 4 PuRP), contributed for the Rookie ball club in a 4-2 loss. Montano hit his third homer of the season and first since July 21st. Rolison put together another decent start in three innings pitch, allowing one earned run. Rolison is yet to allow more than two runs in a start so far this season.
In Triple-A, honorary dark-horse prospect Matt Holliday had a double and reached base three times. He maintains an impressive OPS over .900 in his redux tour with the Rockies organization.
