  MacIver (shoulder) has gone 4-for-11 with two doubles, three walks, four runs, three RBI and three stolen bases over four games in the Arizona Complex League since being assigned to the Rockies' rookie-level affiliate June 5. MacIver finished the 2022 campaign at Triple-A Albuquerque, but he opened the current season in the ACL while he works his way back from a significant right shoulder injury.

The Rockies signed Grayson Greiner to a minor-league deal Tuesday to bolster their catching depth at Triple-A.
