Starts rehab assignment

Veen (knee) went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in his first rehab game with Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Analysis

Veen served as the designated hitter for the Isotopes in what was his first game action in three weeks as he works his way back from a right knee contusion. The 24-year-old created some buzz early in spring training with his new physique and a couple home runs before the knee issue sidetracked him. Veen is likely to remain at Albuquerque once his rehab assignment is over, but he could push for a role with the Rockies at some point this season.
