Rockies' Edouard Julien: Not in lineup versus southpaw
Rotowire
Julien is not in the starting lineup Thursday against the Diamondbacks.
Julien will head to the bench as the Rockies get set to face left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez on the mound. Julien is in the middle of an 0-for-25 stretch at the plate over his last nine contests, so a night off will hopefully allow him to hit the reset button. Braxton Fulford will draw the start at designated hitter and bat seventh in the series opener versus Arizona.

Rotowire

Rockies' Edouard Julien: Swats second homer
Rotowire
Julien went 3-for-4 with a walk, a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 7-2 loss to the Reds.
The former Twin accounted for all of the Rockies' offense in the loss, launching a solo shot in the second inning off Chase Burns before an RBI single in the fifth. Julien has hit safely in seven straight games while being used in a strict strong-side platoon role, batting a blistering .448 (13-for-29) over that stretch to boost his slash line on the season to .308/.393/.449 through 89 plate appearances with two homers, two steals, 12 RBI and 13 runs.

With Julien taking a seat, Willi Castro (knee) will cover second base in his return to the lineup, and Hunter Goodman will serve as the Rockies' designated hitter while Brett Sullivan draws a start behind the dish.
Rockies' Edouard Julien: Strong showing across doubleheader
Rotowire
Julien went 3-for-8 with three runs scored and a walk across both games of Sunday's doubleheader against the Mets.
Julien served as the leadoff hitter in both contests and continued his recent success of getting on base and scoring runs. He extended his hitting streak to six games, and he also has seven runs scored and five RBI in that span. Julien has started 18 of the Rockies' last 19 contests against right-handed pitching, and his strong start to the season should keep his role secure for the foreseeable future.

Julien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

Rockies' Edouard Julien: Drives in three runs
Rotowire
Julien went 3-for-5 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Dodgers.
Julien had a standout day at the plate, recording his first three-hit, three-RBI effort of the campaign. Sunday snapped a cold spell, as the 26-year-old had been hitless over his previous six appearances. Julien has regularly operated as the Rockies' leadoff man against right-handed pitching in 2026, slashing .259/.355/.352 with one homer, two doubles, eight RBI, six runs and two stolen bases across 20 contests.

Rockies' Edouard Julien: First homer of 2026
Rotowire
Julien went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a stolen base, two walks and two runs scored Saturday against the Padres.
Julien led off for the sixth consecutive game, and he continues to excel in the role. He has 10 hits across 21 at-bats in that span, driving in five with five runs scored and two stolen bases. While Julien began the season as a bench bat, he should continue to get regular run at second base and designated hitter so long as he remains productive.

Rockies' Edouard Julien: Taking advantage of playng time
Rotowire
Julien went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, two RBI and a walk Wednesday against the Astros.
Julien served as Colorado's leadoff hitter for the third consecutive game. He's performed well in that span, going 5-for-12 with four RBI and three runs scored. Julien began the season as a part-time player, though his strong performance could earn him additional playing time, at least the short term.
Julien will start at second base and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game against the Astros.
Julien will handle leadoff duties for a third straight contest and appears to have at least temporarily claimed a spot in the Rockies' starting nine against right-handed pitching while Jake McCarthy (.385 OPS) and Jordan Beck (.268 OPS) are struggling. With a .513 OPS in 20 plate appearances, Julien has been only marginally better, and he'll likely need to raise his production to ensure he sticks in the lineup on a long-term basis.
Rockies' Edouard Julien: Sits for third time in four games
Rotowire
Julien is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.
Julien started at designated hitter in the Rockies' first two games of the season, but he's now been left out of the lineup three times in the last four contests, with each of those absences coming against right-handed pitchers. Rather than leaning on Julien as the regular DH, Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer seems content to rotate a number of players at that spot.

Rotowire
Julien is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays.
