Earlier this afternoon, Colorado Rockies called up veteran first baseman Matt Adams up from their alternate training site.
In corresponding moves, the Rockies optioned outfielder Sam Hilliard to the alternate training site and, to accommodate for Adams on the 40-man roster, they designated right-handed pitcher Ashton Goudeau for assignment.
