When Peter Lambert takes the mound to start game one against the Marlins tonight, it will mark his second start of the season — the same number of starts he’s made for the Rockies in 2021 and 2022 combined.
Lambert, who debuted in 2019 and showed promise with his seven strong innings (one run on four hits with nine strikeouts and one walk), has struggled with injuries since his debut four years ago. His only other start this season came on a bullpen day on July 1 when he threw three scoreless innings with two hits, two strikeouts, and one walk.
