Rockies Demote First Baseman Michael Toglia to Triple-A Albuquerque
Colorado Rockies first baseman Michael Toglia has been optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque after a disappointing start to the 2025 season marked by severe offensive struggles and a major strikeout problem. Toglia, who showed promise last season with 21 home runs and a .233 average, has slashed just .194/.266/.349 this year with 81 strikeouts in 207 plate appearances, including a 48% strikeout rate on the road. Interim manager Warren Schaeffer stated the move aims to help Toglia improve his approach and better control the strike zone. To replace him on the roster, the Rockies called up infielder Keston Hiura, who has shown recent offensive success at Triple-A and previously had power numbers with the Milwaukee Brewers. The club also designated infielder Aaron Schunk for assignment. Toglia's struggles highlight a broader offensive issue for the Rockies, as his strikeout rate ballooned while his power and walk rates declined, contributing to the team's historically poor start.
