Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez, who was a late scratch from Saturday’s lineup, is sitting a second straight day but said he’s “feeling almost normal” while recovering from pain under his rib on the left side of his back.
The injury, which was originally described by the Rockies as back spasms, occurred while swinging in Friday’s loss to the Diamondbacks.
“I was really sore after the night game (on Friday), and I was having some trouble sleeping that night with the pain,” Gonzalez said. “They decided to give me a day, and yesterday I saw the chiropractor and he made me feel a lot better.
