The Rockies are expected to recall Bouchard prior to Sunday's game against the Phillies, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
He'll take the roster spot of the injured Jordan Beck (hand). Bouchard just sent down earlier this week after slashing just .222/.333/.370 in 18 games this season. With Beck out indefinitely and Jones (back/knee) still on the mend, Bouchard could see ample playing time in the corner outfield spots for the Rockies.

Rockies' Jordan Beck: Diagnosed with fractured hand
Rotowire
Beck has been diagnosed with a fractured left hand, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Beck made a terrific diving catch in left field to rob Nick Castellanos of a hit in the first inning of Saturday's loss to the Phillies, but he suffered a significant injury on the play. It's not clear at this point whether he will need surgery or how long he might be sidelined, but certainly Beck is headed to the injured list. Beck has slashed just .190/.198/.316 with a 30:1 K:BB in his first 23 games with the Rockies.
Diaz isn't in the Rockies' lineup Saturday against the Phillies.
Diaz went 0-for-4 with a walk during Friday's series opener, and he'll now take a seat against Aaron Nola and the Phillies. Jacob Stallings will start in his place behind the dish and bat eighth.
Marquez (elbow) will return to Denver to throw bullpen sessions during the Rockies' weekend series against the Phillies, MLB.com reports.
Manager Bud Black said the team wanted to see Marquez's progress after he had been working at the team's spring training facility for the last few weeks. If things go well, Marquez could embark on a rehab assignment in the near future for the final stage of his recovery from May 2023 Tommy John surgery, but he's still not expected to be back in the big-league rotation until July.

Rotowire
Jones (back/knee) has yet to resume full baseball activities, MLB.com reports.
Manager Bud Black shared the update Friday, saying Jones had resumed running and playing catch, but swinging a bat was still "a handful of days away." That leaves Jones' timeline to return murky, though it seems unlikely he'll be activated before June.

Rockies' Jacob Stallings: Pops clutch homer
Rotowire
Stallings hit a solo home run in his only plate appearance Friday against the Phillies.
Stallings entered the game as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning and took Jose Alvarado yard to tie the game at 2-2. It was his third home run of the season, all of which have come in May. Even with the positive results for Stallings, Elias Diaz will continue to pick up the majority of starts behind the plate for the Rockies.
Tovar went 4-for-6 with a double and two RBI in Friday's victory over Philadelphia.
Tovar had a career night against the Phillies, collecting his first ever four-hit game and driving home the winning run in extras. The Colorado shortstop has been hot over his last 10 games, batting .347 (17-for-49) with three homers, eight runs scored and eight RBI. Overall, Tovar sports a .285/.317/.473 slash line in 221 plate appearances this season.

Rockies' Ty Blach: Quality start in no-decision
Rotowire
Blach did not factor into the decision Friday against Philadelphia, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk over 6.2 innings. He struck out two.
Blach survived a difficult test as the Phillies entered Friday with the fourth-best offense in the majors by wRC+ (116). Outside of solo homers allowed to Nick Castellanos and Edmundo Sosa, Blach fared well enough to produce his first quality start of the season. Over 27.2 innings this season, the Rockies lefty has tossed a 4.55 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 12:5 K:BB. Blach is tentatively slated to face the Guardians at home in his next outing.
