Chad Stevens Navigates Rockies Utility Role After Triple-A Success

After signing a minor league deal last December, 27-year-old infielder Chad Stevens posted a strong .316/.409/.464 slashline across 99 games for Triple-A Albuquerque and earned a major league call-up in May. Though he struggled offensively in 16 big-league games batting .036 with 28 at-bats, his glove excelled with 2 Defensive Runs Saved and 2 Outs Above Average primarily at second base. Stevens remains a utility infield depth piece with minor league options and several years of team control.
