Wendle went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, a stolen base -- his 14th of the season -- and a run scored in Wednesday's win over the Rangers.

Wendle doubled and scored in the second inning before adding a pair of singles and a walk over his next three plate appearances. The 28-year-old now has back-to-back multi-hit games and is slashing .345/.400/.534 with two stolen bases through 15 games in September.

The Rockies hope Story (elbow) will be able to return sometime during the team's three-game series against the Diamondbacks over the weekend, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.

Story is day-to-day after exiting Monday's game with right elbow soreness. He's headed to Arizona on Thursday to get treatment and potentially do some baseball activities before rejoining the Rockies ahead of Friday's series opener, at which point Colorado will evaluate his readiness for a return to game action.

Manager Bud Black said Story (elbow) is going to Arizona on Thursday to "get more treatment" and "maybe do a few baseball activities" there, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.

Black added that Story is day-to-day and "it truly is encouraging where he is," according to Buster Olney of ESPN. The shortstop exited Monday's game with right elbow soreness after making a diving stop in the field, but a subsequent MRI ruled out structural damage. Ian Desmond is starting at shortstop in his place Wednesday.

Correa is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Mariners.

Correa sits for just the second time since returning from a back injury Aug. 10. He's hit a miserable .174/.257/.223 with just one homer over that stretch. Marwin Gonzalez will move in to play shortstop in Correa's absence.

Reyes went 2-for-5 and threw a runner out at home plate in Tuesday's win over the Royals.

He's already played four spots around the diamond, positioning himself nicely for the team's super-sub role in 2019. Reyes, 25, slashed .284/.337/.421 with eight homers and 16 stolen bases in the minors. He's collected 10 hits in 23 at-bats in his September debut for Pittsburgh.

Baez went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, two runs scored and two strikeouts in Tuesday's win over the Diamondbacks.

Baez got the scoring started early, smashing a two-run home run in the first inning. The 25-year-old is firmly in the mix for the NL MVP with 33 home runs, 107 RBI, 21 stolen bases and a .295/.329/.571 slash line.

Wendle went 4-for-5 with two doubles, a run and an RBI in Tuesday's win over the Rangers.

Wendle slashed an RBI double in the fourth inning and later hit another double, giving him 27 two-baggers on the season. The 28-year-old is hitting .298/.347/.432 with seven home runs, 53 RBI and 55 runs scored while going 13-for-17 in stolen-base attempts on the year.

Adames went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Adames got the scoring started with a two-run homer -- his 10th of the year -- off Yovani Gallardo in the fourth inning. It was the second home run in three games for Adames, and his fourth straight game with a hit. He's now slashing .267/.333/.414 with 28 RBI, 39 runs and six stolen bases in 251 at-bats this season.

Story (elbow) underwent an MRI on Tuesday and manager Bud Black said, "there's some inflammation and a little bit of soreness around the joint but the ligament seems to be fine."

Story exited Monday's game with right elbow soreness and there was fear earlier Tuesday that he may have suffered damage to the UCL, but thankfully he appears to be dealing with a less severe issue. The 25-year-old is without an official timetable for his return at this point but will hopefully be able to return within a few days.

Story (elbow) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, Jenny Cavnar of AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain reports.

Garrett Hampson starts at shortstop after Story injured his elbow Monday night. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported earlier Tuesday that Story may have UCL damage. The Rockies are expected to provide an update around 7:30 PT.
