May 16 2025 | The Rockies designated Trejo for assignment Friday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo has been filling in at shortstop for the Rockies recently, but his run with the big club will now come to an end with Ezequiel Tovar (hip) and Aaron Schunk (groin) both back from the IL. The 28-year-old Trejo slashed a miserable .175/.190/.225 in 43 plate appearances while with the Rockies and is likely to pass through waivers unclaimed. |
|
May 14 2025 | Trejo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After starting at shortstop in each of the Rockies' previous four games, Trejo will give way to Kyle Farmer in the series finale in Texas. With Ezequiel Tovar (hip) in the midst of a rehab assignment and on track to return from the injured list as soon as this weekend, Trejo is likely to see his playing time take a significant hit in the near future. |
|
May 8 2025 | Trejo isn't in the lineup for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Tigers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After going 0-for-2 with a sacrifice fly in the early game, Trejo will get a chance to rest during the nightcap while Kyle Farmer starts at shortstop and bats seventh. |
|
Jul 2 2024 | Trejo signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Tuesday and was assigned to Triple-A Oklahoma City, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo cleared waivers Saturday after being designated for assignment by the Rockies. He refused an outright assignment, so he became a free agent. The infielder was 9-for-63 with Colorado this season and had posted a 61 OPS+ in four seasons. |
|
Jun 29 2024 | Trejo cleared waivers Saturday and elected to become a free agent. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo was jettisoned from the 40-man roster Friday to make room for Aaron Schunk, and he'll now look for another opportunity elsewhere after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 28-year-old has slashed just .143/.182/.143 in 67 plate appearances this season, and any offer he receives from another organization would almost certainly come in the form of a minor-league deal. |
|
Jun 28 2024 | The Rockies designated Trejo for assignment Friday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo had seen semi-regular playing time in June while Brendan Rodgers was injured, but he went just 6-for-29 (.207) with four runs and an RBI since the start of the month. Trejo will hand over his spot on the 40-man and 26-man roster to Aaron Schunk, who'll provide some infield depth for the Rockies. |
|
Jun 2 2024 | Trejo will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Dodgers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo will crack the starting nine for the first time since May 24 while everyday second baseman Brendan Rodgers gets a day out of the field and serves as the Rockies' designated hitter. Though he's been on the active roster since Opening Day, Trejo has made just 12 starts in 58 games and has logged only 34 plate appearances. |
|
Apr 15 2024 | Trejo is starting at second base and batting ninth for Monday's game against the Phillies. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Elehuris Montero was initially slated to start Monday, but was a late scratch with Trejo taking his place. Trejo is 0-for-6 with one strikeout to start the season. |
|
Mar 28 2024 | The Rockies selected Trejo's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo came into camp as a non-roster invitee but won a spot with a solid spring. He will be used as a reserve infielder. |
|
Mar 26 2024 | Rockies manager Bud Black announced Tuesday that Trejo made the Opening Day roster, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The 27-year-old was in camp as a non-roster invitee after being outrighted off the 40-man roster in January, but he'll be added back to the major-league roster ahead of Thursday's season opener in Arizona. Trejo appeared in 83 games for Colorado last season and had a .232/.288/.343 slash line. |
|
Jan 5 2024 | The Rockies sent Trejo outright to Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo's move to Triple-A and off the 40-man roster comes as a result of Dakota Hudson signing with the Rockies on Friday. Trejo slashed .232/.288/.343 with 26 RBI across 227 plate appearances last season. However, he has historically performed significantly better in Triple-A, and he could still return to Colorado if he gets off to another hot start in the minors. |
|
Sep 29 2023 | Trejo went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run in Friday's 7-6 loss to the Twins. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo was mired in 1-for-25 stretch but has now recorded four hits over his past two games, including Friday's three-run blast. The part-time utility man is now hitting .226 with four homers, 26 RBI, 23 runs and five steals over 205 at-bats. |
|
Aug 30 2023 | Trejo went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored, a stolen base and a walk in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to Atlanta. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Entering Wednesday, Trejo had gone 0-for-12 across his last seven games while holding down a reserve role. The homer was his first since Aug. 13, while the steal was his first in 32 games dating back to June 3. The infielder has a poor .237/.283/.353 slash line with three long balls, five thefts, 22 RBI and 18 runs scored over 188 plate appearances this season. |
|
Aug 13 2023 | Trejo went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 8-3 loss to the Dodgers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo's fourth-inning blast tied the game at 3-3, but the Rockies' offense stalled out from there. The infielder has gone 4-for-15 over his last seven games while playing in a limited role. He snapped a homer drought of 15 contests dating back to July 16. Trejo hasn't exactly impressed with a .248/.287/.357 slash line, two homers, 19 RBI, 16 runs scored and four stolen bases over 168 plate appearances, but he could push for some playing time at second base with Brendan Rodgers struggling. |
|
Jul 24 2023 | Trejo went 4-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Monday's win over Washington. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo had a near-perfect day at the plate, highlighted by the seventh inning where he doubled and scored a run. It was his first multi-hit game since May 26; in 14 games between then and Monday, he posted a .583 OPS with 12 strikeouts in 33 at-bats. Trejo improved his season slash line to .256/.291/.353 with 11 extra-base hits and 15 runs scored through 142 plate appearances. |
|
Jul 16 2023 | Trejo went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 8-7 extra-innings win over the Yankees. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo entered as a pinch runner and scored in the eighth inning before walking it off with his solo shot in the 11th. The homer was his first of the season in 46 contests. The infielder has added 14 RBI, 12 runs scored, eight doubles and four stolen bases over 128 plate appearances. Trejo doesn't have an immediate path to significant playing time -- his best bet would be to compete with Harold Castro at second base, which could earn Trejo a short-side platoon role. |
|
Jul 4 2023 | Colorado recalled Trejo from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo returns to the Rockies in a utility infield role following a three-week stay in the minors. He hit the ball well on the farm but holds a weak .241/.271/.313 batting line with zero home runs across 41 games (119 plate appearances) this year in the bigs. |
|
Jun 11 2023 | The Rockies optioned Trejo to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo had been serving as a short-side platoon option in the infield for the Rockies, but he hadn't been especially effective in that role. Colorado called up infielder Coco Montes from Triple-A to serve as a replacement for Trejo, who has slashed .241/.271/.313 with zero home runs and four stolen bases across 119 plate appearances for Colorado on the season. |
|
May 28 2023 | Trejo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo started at second base in each of the last three games and went 5-for-10 with three doubles, a walk, two RBI, a run and a stolen base, but he still looks as though he'll be limited to a utility infield role. Harold Castro is back at his normal spot at the keystone Sunday after previously starting in the outfield during the past two contests. |
|
May 26 2023 | Trejo went 1-for-2 with an RBI and a steal in Thursday's victory over Miami. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: He got the Rockies on the board in the fourth inning, driving in Randal Grichuk with two outs. Trejo would later walk to lead off the seventh inning before swiping his third stolen base of the year. The 26-year-old infielder's gone just 2-for-19 over his last seven games while playing sparingly. He's now slashing .231/.260/.286 with 11 RBI and eight runs scored through 97 plate appearances this season. |
|
May 11 2023 | Trejo went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a steal in Wednesday's win over Pittsburgh. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo tied the game 3-3 in the fourth inning with an RBI single before notching his second stolen base, setting a new career high. The 27-year-old Trejo has been swinging the bat well, going 8-for-19 with five RBI in his last six games. He's now slashing .264/.284/.333 with five doubles, six runs scored and nine RBI while primarily coming off the bench for Colorado. |
|
May 6 2023 | Trejo remains on the bench for Saturday's game against the Mets, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo started 10 out of 11 games from April 18 to 29, but since then, he's started just two of six contests. Both of his starts in this recent stretch have come against southpaws, with Harold Castro handling second base against righties like Saturday's starter Tylor Megill. |
|
May 5 2023 | Trejo is out of the lineup Friday against the Mets. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Harold Castro will start at second base and bat eighth with right-hander Kodai Senga on the mound for New York. This has formed into a bit of a platoon in recent weeks, though Trejo should still get starts against some righties. Trejo and Castro are both currently under .600 in the OPS department. |
|
May 4 2023 | Trejo went 2-for-4 with a double and three RBI on Wednesday against the Brewers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo came to bat with the bases loaded and two outs in the fourth inning and delivered a bases-clearing double. He added a single later in the game to record his first multi-hit effort since April 10. Trejo has been operating as Colorado's everyday second baseman since April 18, though he's hit just .195 with six RBI and two runs scored across 41 at-bats in that span. |
|
Apr 30 2023 | Trejo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo started the past four games at second base and will take a seat after he went 3-for-18 with two RBI, a run and a stolen base. Harold Castro will man the keystone in Sunday's series finale. |
|
Sep 29 2022 | Trejo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Giants. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo popped the ball off and over the right-field wall in the fifth inning for a 332-foot solo shot. It was his first homer since Sept. 13 and his fourth of the season. Trejo has been hitting well of late, going 11-for-33 (.333 average) with two doubles, a homer and four RBI over his past nine contests. |
|
Sep 27 2022 | Trejo is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo started seven straight games but will take a seat Tuesday after he posted a .655 OPS during that span. Garrett Hampson will start at the keystone and bat ninth in the series opener. |
|
Sep 25 2022 | Trejo will start at second base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Padres. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The arrival of top prospect Ezequiel Tovar in the big leagues has ended Trejo's run as Colorado's primary shortstop, but Brendan Rodgers' (hamstring) recent move to the injured list has opened up an everyday role for Trejo at the keystone. He'll be making his third straight start at the position after he had manned shortstop each of the prior four contests. |
|
Sep 20 2022 | Trejo went 2-for-5 with an RBI on Monday against the Giants. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo singled in a run in the second inning and managed to record his first multi-hit game since Sept. 9. Despite the slow stretch, he's hit .308 with two home runs, seven RBI and five runs scored since taking over as Colorado's primary shortstop Sept. 4. Jose Iglesias (thumb) hasn't made much reported progress toward a return, so Trejo should continue to see regular playing time in the short term. |
|
Sep 18 2022 | Trejo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo started the past four games and will head to the bench after he went 3-for-12 with a home run, a double, three RBI and two runs during that stretch. Garrett Hampson will step in at shortstop and bat ninth Sunday. |
|
Sep 13 2022 | Trejo went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the White Sox. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo accounted for all of the Rockies' runs and their lone extra-base hit with his third-inning homer. The 26-year-old has gone 7-for-17 (.412) over his last five games while settling in as the primary shortstop in the absence of Jose Iglesias (hand). Trejo owns a .266/.309/.453 slash line with three homers, 11 RBI, 10 runs scored and three doubles through 68 plate appearances this year. |
|
Sep 7 2022 | Trejo will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo looks as though he'll get a look as Colorado's everyday shortstop after Jose Iglesias (hand) was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday. The 26-year-old will pick up his fourth consecutive start at the position after going 4-for-9 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run over the previous three contests. |
|
Sep 1 2022 | Trejo was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo spent the last month in the minors and slashed .358/.382/.741 with eight home runs, 21 RBI and 14 runs over 20 games after being demoted in early August. However, he'll provide infield depth for the big-league club now that active rosters have expanded to 28 players. |
|
Aug 2 2022 | Trejo was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque following Monday's loss to the Padres. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo was recalled earlier in the day, but his latest stay with the big club lasted only a day.

|
Aug 1 2022 | Trejo was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo spent the bulk of the last three months at the Triple-A level, but he will rejoin the big club and take the roster spot of Kris Bryant (foot), who landed on the injured list in the corresponding move. Expect Trejo to fill a utility role for the Rockies. |
|
Jun 19 2022 | The Rockies optioned Trejo to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo was called up from Triple-A on Friday, one day after fellow utility man Garrett Hampson (illness) was moved to the COVID-19-related injured list. With the Rockies activating Hampson ahead of Sunday's series finale with the Padres after he cleared all protocols, Trejo's brief run with the big club will come to an end. |
|
Jun 17 2022 | Trejo was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo was sent to the minors in early May but will rejoin the active roster and start at third base during Friday's game against the Padres.

|
May 1 2022 | Trejo was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo mainly operated as a depth option for the Rockies early in the season, but he recently drew four consecutive starts. He appeared in 10 games and hit .257 with a homer, a double, six runs and six RBI, but he'll be demoted since Colorado will activate Garrett Hampson (hand) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday. |
|
Apr 16 2022 | Trejo went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's win over the Cubs. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo blasted a bomb in the bottom of the fourth inning and it was a game-changing moment, as his three-run shot gave the Rockies a two-run lead. It was Trejo's first long ball of the season and second of his MLB career, though he's not expected to be a regular presence in the lineup going forward. |
|
Apr 7 2022 | Trejo has made the Rockies' Opening Day roster, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo spent the final month and a half of the 2021 season at Triple-A Albuquerque, but he'll begin this year with the major-league club. The 25-year-old appeared in 15 Cactus League games this spring and hit .226 with three doubles, two runs and an RBI. |

Trejo figures to get occasional playing time at shortstop while Trevor Story (elbow) remains out of action. |
|
Jun 1 2021 | The Rockies recalled Trejo from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo returns to the Rockies after suffering a dislocated finger May 21 in Triple-A.

|
Apr 10 2021 | Trejo's contract was selected by the Rockies on Saturday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Trejo will join the major-league club for the first time after Chris Owings (thumb) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.
