Tulowitzki Returns to Lineup vs. Phillies

Monday, May 18

MLB Lineups tweeted that Tulowitzki is set to return to the lineup against the Phillies:

"

The team's official Twitter account noted that Tulowitzki left Friday's contest with "left quadriceps tightness."

The Rockies are in last place in the National League West, and the shortstop's long-term health is more important than a couple of games in May.

Entering play Monday, Tulowitzki is hitting .284 with two home runs and 11 RBI. While the numbers don't jump off the page, he is a four-time All-Star, two-time Gold Glove winner and the most feared hitter in Colorado's lineup.
