Freeland (left groin strain) was placed on the 10-day DL on Saturday.

He left Friday's start with the groin injury, and it will cost him at least one start. The Rockies already had six big-league starters on the active roster prior to this injury, so it seems likely that they will simply go with a strict five-man rotation until Freeland is healthy. Carlos Estevez was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move to serve as a fresh bullpen arm.
