What will the Rockies do to make up for the loss of Reynolds if he misses an extended period of time?
Colorado Rockies first baseman Mark Reynolds left in the seventh inning of the team's 12-9 victory over the Texas Rangers on Thursday with a hand injury that could result in a stint on the disabled list, according to multiple reports.
If Reynolds does have to miss a significant period of time, it will affect the Rockies in multiple ways. First, in more than 800 innings of action at first base, Reynolds has been an above-average defender -- and possibly better than that, if you go strictly by the eye test.
