  "summary": "The Colorado Rockies have placed starting pitcher Kyle Freeland on the 15-day injured list due to cervical radiculopathy, effective retroactively to August 21st. Freeland, 33, left his August 19th start against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the fourth inning with the neck injury. Additionally, the team has selected the contract of right-handed pitcher Blake Adams, 25, from Triple-A Albuquerque. Adams, a 2022 MLB Draft pick out of Kansas State University, made two starts for the Hartford Yard Goats in 2026, going 2-5 with an 8.10 ERA over 50 innings. With Freeland's injury and the addition of Adams, the Rockies are making adjustments to their pitching staff.",
