Colorado Rockies top pitching prospect Ryan Rolison will miss some time after undergoing surgery to remove his appendix following a case of appendicitis.

Rockies manager Bud Black made the announcement about Rolison following his press conference with the media, including Rox Pile, prior to Colorado opening a three-game series in Miami against the Marlins.

“He’ll be shelved for the time being,” Black said.
