Nick Pivetta

Tovar's recent hot streak continued on Wednesday afternoon at Coors Field as he kicked off Colorado's eventual 20-run outburst with a first-inning solo shot -- his 17th big fly of the season -- off Red Sox starter Nick Pivetta. He also plated an additional run in the ensuing frame with a run-scoring single as part of a three-hit effort. The 22-year-old shortstop has been sizzling hot of late, hitting .328 (22-for-67) with five homers and 12 RBI over his last 15 games. He's going to strike out a ton, but he's hitting for a ton of over-the-fence pop with a palatable batting average at the moment.

Coors Field strikes again. Pivetta turned in one of the more bizarre pitching lines in recent memory as he struck out six, didn't hand out a free pass, and was also tagged for an absurd 10 hits, including a pair of home runs. We're willing to write this outing off completely as a Colorado mirage, but it's going to leave a mark on fantasy manager's ratios for a long time. He'll aim for better results, which shouldn't be too difficult, when he faced off against the Mariners injury-depleted lineup on Tuesday at Fenway Park.

It was a career day for Doyle during Wednesday afternoon's matinee at Coors Field as he delivered a run-scoring single off Red Sox starter Nick Pivetta in the second inning before blasting a grand slam -- his 17th round-tripper of the season -- off reliever Chase Anderson a couple frames later to give Colorado a commanding 19-3 lead at the time. The Rockies finished with 20 runs on 21 hits combined in the one-sided affair. The 26-year-old center fielder has been phenomenal over the last few weeks, batting .310 (36-for-116) with 12 homers, 32 RBI and two steals over his last 30 contests.

Pivetta was inline for a victory before Freddie Freeman hit a go-ahead grand slam in the eighth after Pivetta had exited. It comes without a win but it was an excellent outing for the right-hander where he allowed just two hits and struck out eight. The 31-year-old has shown the swing-and-miss stuff as of late, and he's a good bet to miss bats against the Rockies on Wednesday even with that start happening in Colorado.

Nick Pivetta will start on Friday, Brayan Bello will start on Saturday and then Kutter Crawford will start on Sunday. Each can perform well against the Dodgers without a fully healthy lineup, but there is significant risk, especially with Bello.
