Rockies' Brendan Rodgers: To hit injured list

The Rockies are expected to place Rodgers on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a left hamstring strain, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Rodgers was removed from Friday's game against the Cardinals after he had his hamstring tightened up while running out a hit. Further evaluation revealed that the second baseman has a strain in his left hamstring and will need an IL stint. Infielder Adael Amador will be called up from Double-A Hartford to fill Rodgers' spot on the active roster and should share second base duties with Alan Trejo.
