Hundley went 4-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI, three runs and his second stolen base of the season in a win over the Brewers on Sunday.
The 31-year-old backstop was impressive against the Brewers, driving doubles No. 10 and 11 deep into the gap. His stolen base was the result of a defensive miscue by shortstop Jean Segura, but it was still a nice surprise. With his performance Sunday, Hundley pushed his average back over .300 (.302), which could help him regain a larger share of the playing time -- he has been alternating starts with Mike McKenry of late.

Hundley is out of the lineup Thursday.
It's just a standard day off for Hundley, but Mike McKenry has slowly started to get more starts than he was seeing earlier in the season. Hundley should still be viewed as the primary catcher, but he may sit more than every fifth day going forward.

Hundley is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.
He will turn over backstop duties to Mike McKenry after starting three straight games and nine of 12 to begin June. While Hundley is just 8-for-33 (.242 average) with two doubles so far this month, he still has a very respectable .291/.330/.442 batting line for the season and his primary role appears safe.

Hundley has generated three multi-hit efforts while starting five of the Rockies' seven games thus far during their homestand. The 31-year-old is thriving in the thin air of Coors Field, where he's batted .325 with four of his five homers and 17 of his 20 RBI on the season.

The Rockies just had an off day Thursday, but Hundley will get another day to rest his legs as Mike McKenry takes over behind the dish. Hundley, who is batting .304/.338/.473 through 41 games (157 PA) and providing quality defense, appears well entrenched in the starting role for Colorado.

Hundley went 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles, two RBI, and three runs scored in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers.
The beat goes on for Hundley, who was rested for Game 1 in favor of backup Michael McKenry. Hundley has been as good as advertised behind the plate for the Rockies, but it's his offensive production that has really been a revelation, even if it's been artificially inflated by playing at Coors Field. Among catchers with at least 50 plate appearances, Hundley ranks third in batting average (.307), sixth in runs (20), and tied for seventh in homers (five).

Wed May 27 201510:18Hundley out of lineup Wednesday against Reds
Hundley is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Reds, MLB.com's Thomas Harding reports.
With Wednesday's series finale kicking off at 12:35 ET, Hundley will receive a breather after starting Tuesday's night game. He was able to continue his torrid hitting, going 2-for-3 with a solo homer to give him three long balls and seven RBI over his last seven starts. Michael McKenry will spell him behind the plate Wednesday.

Hundley was responsible for Colorado's only run on Tuesday, hitting a deep home run to left field in the fifth inning. Hundley has provided solid offensive production in a position where offense is very scarce. He's hitting .317 with five home runs and 16 RBI so far this year.

Hundley went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, two RBI and a run scored against the Giants on Sunday.
The 31-year-old is a different man at Coors Field, where he has hit all four of his home runs, has delivered 11 of his 13 RBI and has a .946 OPS on the season (compared to .672 away). As such, he makes for a solid daily option and a good plug-and-play when the Rockies are at home, but will need to show more consistency before he warrants serious attention.

Hundley cracked the go-ahead solo home run in the eighth inning of Tuesday's win over the Phillies. He also delivered an RBI single earlier in the game.
Hundley surprisingly ranks second on the Rockies in batting average, as Tuesday's two-hit performance vaulted his season line to .307/.349/.465. All three of his home runs and nine of his 11 RBI have come at Coors Field, where he'll remain a viable daily target just about whenever he plays there.

Hundley saw a 13-game hit streak come to an end Wednesday night and has now struck out five times in the last two games. The 31-year-old's .322 batting average is well above his career norm and has been aided by a .400 BABIP, but he still represents a more-than-serviceable option in two-catcher leagues even if his value plummets from here.
