The move was made retroactive to June 5, meaning he can return on the 19th if he's healthy.Fowler is off to a terrible start, hitting just .238 with zero home runs and 18 RBIs in 210 at-bats. The speedy 25-year-old has just two stolen bases and has been caught six times.The Rockies purchased the contract of outfielder Charlie Blackmon from Triple-A Colorado Springs to replace Fowler on the major-league roster.
