Back up with big club The Rockies recalled Agnos from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.

Impact Agnos served as the Rockies' closer for a stretch earlier this season but was sent down after being scored upon in four straight outings. He appeared to get back on track at Albuquerque, permitting one run with a 4:1 K:BB in four frames. Agnos could re-enter the late-inning mix for the Rockies but is unlikely to be a front-runner for saves right away.

Sent packing to minors The Rockies optioned Agnos to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

Impact Agnos leads the Rockies with four saves this season, but his ratios (5.48 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 3.3 K-BB% in 21.1 innings) have left much to be desired. After Agnos allowed runs in each of his last four appearances, the Rockies will send the 24-year-old righty back to Triple-A with the hope that he can get right. Seth Halvorsen, Tyler Kinley, Victor Vodnik and Jake Bird look to be the Rockies' top high-leverage relievers, but mining for saves on a 13-57 squad could prove to be a fruitless endeavor for fantasy managers.

Another tough outing Agnos allowed three earned runs on one hit and two walks Wednesday against the Giants.

Impact Agnos relieved Tyler Kinley in the eighth inning after the latter blew a three-run lead. Agnos allowed a run on a sacrifice bunt, but didn't allow any additional baserunners in the frame. However, he came back out for the ninth inning and allowed three of the first four batters he faced to reach base before being pulled. Agnos has been sharing save chances with Seth Halvorsen for the last several weeks, but he has now allowed 10 earned runs across his last 3.1 innings (four appearances), so Halvorsen could be in line for the next few chances.

Shelled in Tuesday's loss Agnos (0-3) took the loss in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Giants. He allowed four runs on one hit and three walks with no strikeouts over one-third of an inning.

Impact Agnos entered the ninth inning with a four-run lead but quickly ran into trouble, surrendering a solo homer to Casey Schmitt and then walking the bases loaded with one out. He was then replaced by Victor Vodnik, who allowed all three inherited runners to score. The right-hander began Tuesday with a 2.70 ERA and 1.05 WHIP, but those marks ballooned to 4.43 and 1.23, respectively, over 20.1 innings this season following the disastrous outing.

Takes second loss Agnos (0-2) took the loss against the Mets on Friday after allowing two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out two in the ninth inning.

Impact Agnos was brought in for the ninth, tasked with keeping the game tied at 2-2. He started off nicely by striking out Starling Marte, but Agnos proceeded to let the next two batters on base before giving up a two-run double to Francisco Lindor (toe). It marked the first time this season that Agnos yielded more than one run in an appearance, and the 24-year-old right-hander is up to a 2.37 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 10:3 K:BB across 19 innings.

Off bereavement list The Rockies reinstated Agnos (personal) from the bereavement list Friday.

Impact Agnos has rejoined the team ahead of its three-game homestand against the Mets after going on the bereavement list earlier this week. The closer has logged a 1.50 ERA and a 0.83 WHIP in 18 innings this season.

Lands on bereavement list The Rockies placed Agnos (personal) on the bereavement list Tuesday.

Impact Agnos secured his fourth save of the season Monday in Miami with a scoreless ninth inning, but he'll now step away from the team for a few days for personal reasons. Players can be on the bereavement list for 3-to-7 days, so the right-hander could be back on the active roster for Friday's series opener versus the Mets.

Picks up fourth save Agnos allowed one hit in the ninth inning on the way to picking up his fourth save during Monday's 6-4 win over the Marlins.

Impact Being the closer on a 10-50 team doesn't afford you too many opportunities, but Agnos stayed perfect with his fourth save in his four opportunities. The 24-year-old has been a bright spot this season for the Rockies, sporting a 1.50 ERA and a 0.84 WHIP in his 16 appearances. The right-hander will be looking to start a new scoreless streak after he allowed a run in his last appearance that snapped a streak of five consecutive scoreless outings.

Converts third save Agnos walked one in a scoreless and hitless inning to earn the save in Friday's 3-2 win over the Yankees.

Impact This was Agnos' third save of the season, though it was his first since May 1 versus the Giants. Over his previous five appearances, he had allowed four runs (two earned) with a 6:1 K:BB, earning one hold. Agnos is in the mix for closing duties for the Rockies, but considering the team improved to 9-42 with Friday's win, save chances are unlikely to be common. He has a 1.29 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 7:2 K:BB over 14 innings this season.

Earns another save Thursday Agnos picked up the save in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Giants after throwing a clean ninth inning. He didn't record a strikeout.

Impact Agnos is now up to 7.1 scoreless innings so far to begin his major-league career. That said, the rookie right-hander has logged just one punchout in his first six appearances, so he hasn't necessarily overwhelmed the opposition. The Rockies have had only 10 save opportunities this season, but Agnos has earned a save in back-to-back games and appears to have worked his way into the ninth-inning mix alongside Seth Halvorsen and Tyler Kinley in Colorado's bullpen.
