Holland, a three-time All-Star, wasn't available for the Rockies’ 5-4 win over the Mets on Tuesday because of the injury.

Holland, who missed all of 2016 because of Tommy John surgery, has bounced back in 2017 with a 1.64 ERA, and he leads the majors with 33 saves. Colorado (61-47) currently holds the second wild-card spot in the National League.
