Barnes went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Pirates.

Barnes was making his first start in five games, as he's since settled back into a reserve role following Corey Dickerson's activation from the DL two weeks ago. He'll likely see regular duty off the bench as one of the Rockies' top pinch-hitting options, but it likely won't result in enough at-bats the rest of the way to help many fantasy players.

Barnes returned to the lineup with a bang Wednesday, going 3-for-4 with a homer, two RBI and two runs against the Braves.

After missing Tuesday's game with an illness, Barnes came back and partied like he was in Coors Field despite this game being held in Atlanta. Of course, with just two homers and two steals in 82 games, his fantasy appeal remains quite limited.

Barnes (illness) is back in the lineup Wednesday against the Braves.

A late scratch from Tuesday's lineup, Barnes has evidently shaken the stomach bug already as he's penciled in to return Wednesday to face right-hander Shelby Miller. Barnes' OPS against right-handers has fallen off a bit from last year (.704 from .766), but not nearly to the extent his mark against lefties has (.471 from .650).

Barnes was scratched from Tuesday's starting lineup with a stomach illness.

Matt McBride will move over to right field as Kyle Parker steps in to man left with Barnes under the weather. The lineup change was announced about 20 minutes prior to first pitch.

Barnes went 2-for-3 with a triple, two RBI and a stolen base in a 9-5 loss to the Padres on Friday.

Barnes playing time has been dwindling as of late likely due to his poor form. Coming into the game, Barnes had only two hits since July 22, and his batting average dropped over 40 points. Barnes is simply a platoon player in a lefty-heavy outfield at this point.

Barnes struck out as a pinch-hitter in Thursday's loss to the Mets, keeping him hitless in his 17 at-bats so far in August.

Corey Dickerson recently returned to the DL after breaking his ribs, but it looks as though Barnes will be passed over for a regular lineup spot this time around. Instead, Kyle Parker has seen the majority of the starts in left field since Dickerson went down, leaving ice-cold Barnes to reprise his role as a bench bat.

Barnes was used as a reserve for the third consecutive game in Wednesday's loss to the Cubs. He struck out in his lone at-bat as a pinch hitter.

With Corey Dickerson (foot) returning from a bout with plantar fasciitis to reclaim an everyday role in left field, Barnes figures to see most of his duties late in games as a pinch-hitter or defensive replacement. Barnes has been a useful option in deeper leagues this season on the occasions he's seen an extended run of starts at Coors Field, where he's slashing .316/.409/.432 across 95 plate appearances, but with sporadic at-bats headed his way, it will be hard for him to retain much fantasy value.

Barnes went 3-for-4 with RBI and a run scored in Saturday's loss to the Padres.

Barnes' seventh-inning RBI triple chased Padres starter Tyson Ross for the game, but it wasn't enough as the Rockies dropped a second straight contest. The Rockies have turned to Barnes as the primary left fielder for the last month-plus with Corey Dickerson (foot) on the DL, but that uptick in at-bats could soon be coming to an end. Dickerson is slated to begin a minor-league rehab assignment Sunday and could rejoin the Rockies by the middle of the upcoming week.

Barnes is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Athletics, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Barnes has taken on the primary duties in right field with Corey Dickerson (foot) on the disabled list. However, he will yield Wednesday's start to Rafael Ynoa, who'll bat ninth and play left field for the Rockies.

Barnes went 2-for-4 with his first home run of the season and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Diamondbacks.

Barnes capped the Rockies' home-run barrage with a 403-foot bomb to left center off Josh Collmenter in the eighth inning, given his team a season-high five long balls on the night. The Rockies used Barnes in right field Tuesday with Carlos Gonzalez (hand) unavailable, but he's more likely to see regular duties in left going forward with Corey Dickerson (foot) already on the disabled list.

Barnes went 1-for-1 with three walks in Thursday's loss to the Astros.

Barnes seemed to be on the cusp of losing his regular role in left field after Corey Dickerson was activated from the DL last week, but Dickerson stuck around for just a couple of games before he was shelved again due to a setback with his ailing foot. As a result, Barnes should be the primary beneficiary for additional at-bats, making him a worthy speculative pickup in NL-only or deeper formats. The Rockies still have six games remaining on their current homestand, providing Barnes with a strong opportunity to improve further upon his .301 season average.

Barnes went 1-for-3 with his first stolen base of the season in Tuesday's loss to the Astros.

Barnes has started four games in a row in the outfield, but his run of regular at-bats will likely draw to a close when the Rockies open their eight-game homestand Wednesday. With no DH spot available in the lineup and Corey Dickerson seemingly good to go after a minor setback with his plantar fasciitis, Barnes figures to serve as one of the Rockies' top pinch-hitting options off the bench.

Barnes (lower body) is back in the lineup Saturday against the Marlins, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.

An unspecified lower-body injury kept Barnes out for the first two games of the series, but he will slot back in Saturday against right-hander Mat Latos, taking over in center field for Charlie Blackmon. Barnes is 17-for-52 (.327 average) with six doubles against right-handed pitching so far this season. He hit .256/.283/.483 against right-handed pitching in 2014.

Barnes (lower body) remains out of the lineup against the Marlins on Friday.

Barnes left Wednesday's game after a hard slide into second base, which appeared to result in some sort of leg injury. The team has remained mum on the situation, so Barnes should continue to be considered day-to-day until the Rockies say otherwise. Corey Dickerson will get the start in left field Friday against Marlins starter Jose Urena.

Barnes (lower body) is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins.

The Rockies have not provided an update on Barnes' status since he left Wednesday's game, but even if he was healthy, he likely would have sat Thursday with Corey Dickerson returning to action. Consider Barnes day-to-day until either he returns to the lineup or the Rockies announce where he stands health-wise.

Barnes departed Wednesday's game in the seventh inning after a hard slide into second base, Dargan Southard of MLB.com reports.

At this time, it's unclear exactly what injury Barnes may have suffered. He initially stayed in the game after being checked out by team medical personnel but was later removed for pinch hitter Ben Paulsen. Further information should be available in the near future, but for now consider Barnes day-to-day until th eteam says otherwise.

Barnes went 4-for-7 with a run and two RBI while starting both games of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers.

Barnes has started six straight games for the Rockies, and it seems safe to safe at this point that manager Walt Weiss has settled on him as the primary replacement for Corey Dickerson (foot) in left field. He's not going to be able to uphold the lofty .372 batting average he's delivered through his first 43 at-bats with the Rockies, but his standing as a lineup regular in one of the league's best hitting environments makes him a must-own in NL-only formats.

Barnes is out of the lineup Sunday against the Phillies.

The injury to Corey Dickerson (foot) has opened up fairly regular at-bats for Barnes in left field, but he'll be rested for only the second time in eight games Sunday, as Ben Paulsen draws the start. After a miserable start to the season at Triple-A Albuquerque, Barnes has surprisingly found his hitting stroke immediately upon his return to the majors. He's gone 11-for-29 (.379) across his 11 games with the Rockies.

Barnes will bat leadoff and play center field Monday against the Reds.

Despite slashing .205/.266/.364 over 132 at-bats at Triple-A Albuquerque, Barnes earned a promotion to the Rockies last week when Corey Dickerson (foot) landed on the DL. Since then, Barnes has improbably turned into the Rockies' hottest hitter, going 8-for-13 with three doubles, three RBI, and five runs scored in his six games with the club. Manager Walt Weiss may continue to ride Barnes on a regular basis while his bat remains hot, but his MLB track record suggests a steep correction is coming.

Barnes recorded a pinch-hit RBI single and would come around to score in the Rockies' 11-8 loss to the Giants on Friday.

Barnes had to wait a while to score the run, as the game was delayed for an hour and 33 minutes due to rain after the outfielder's at-bat. While Barnes figures to be primarily deployed in a reserve role during his stay with the big club, his 4-for-4 performance in Thursday's series finale against the Phillies demonstrates that he'll be an intriguing option in daily formats when he receives a start at Coors Field.
