Freeman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.
Freeman started in each of the previous three games -- twice at second base, once in right field -- and went 2-for-9 with a run scored. The 27-year-old has produced an underwhelming .251/.322/.320 slash line with three home runs and six stolen bases over 279 plate appearances on the season and appears likely to handle a part-time role while the Rockies are relatively healthy.
