Rockies' Adael Amador “getting acclimated” to major leagues

The Rockies are not counting on Adael Amador to make a huge splash in the big-league pool. “We want to get him acclimated,” manager Bud Black said. In his first five games, entering Saturday night's game against the Pirates at Coors Field, Amador was hitting 3-for-18 (.167) with five strikeouts, no walks and one stolen base. When Rodgers does return, Amador will be optioned back to the minors, most likely to Double-A Hartford.
