Rockies manager Clint Hurdle didn't rule out trying Helton in the cleanup spot again. August 19, 2005 Todd Helton batted cleanup on Friday for the first time since Sept. 27, 2002, according to the AP. He went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. August 10, 2005 Todd Helton went 2-for-5 with an RBI on Wednesday night in his first game back since missing 14 games with a strained calf. August 10, 2005 The Rockies activated Todd Helton from the disabled list, according to the AP. He's been out with a strained left calf that he suffered while running the bases in a game on July 30. August 10, 2005 Todd Helton made his second start on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Colorado Springs Tuesday, according to the Rocky Mountain News. He will be re-evaluated by the Rockies' medical personnel today before the team decides if he should be activated. "He is going to want to (be activated), there is no question about that," manager Clint Hurdle said. "The thing we have in our favor is that (the Sky Sox) have two more games there after (Tuesday) if he needs them." Helton is on the DL with a strained left calf. August 9, 2005 Todd Helton went 2-for-2 with an RBI double and a walk in the first game of his rehab assignment with Triple-A Colorado Springs on Monday, according to the Rocky Mountain News. Helton is eligible to come off the disabled list Wednesday and likely will be activated if he does not suffer any setbacks. August 8, 2005 Todd Helton, recovering from a strained left calf muscle, was cleared by Rockies trainers to begin his rehab assignment at Triple-A Colorado Springs, according to the AP. "He will play a maximum of seven innings," Rockies manager Clint Hurdle said. "Trainers will talk to him after five innings and decide from there." August 6, 2005 Todd Helton felt some discomfort in his strained left calf muscle earlier this week, so the start of his rehab assignment will come Monday, instead of Sunday, according to the Rocky Mountain News. It's still possible he could return when eligible on Wednesday.

July 28, 2005 To create room on their roster for the return of Aaron Cook Saturday, the Rockies may place Todd Helton on the disabled list, if his strained calf isn't feeling better, according to the Denver Post. "It's (management's) decision. And if I'm not ready in four days, I'm probably looking at the DL," he said. July 27, 2005 The strained calf of Todd Helton was slightly better on Wednesday and he's listed as day-to-day, according to the AP. July 27, 2005 If the strained left calf of Todd Helton is not improved by Saturday, he could land on the disabled list, according to the Rocky Mountain News. He suffered the injury while running the bases Monday during the seventh inning. Helton is listed as day-to-day. "They don't think it's anything that is going to keep him down two, three weeks," Clint Hurdle said. "We'll take it day by day." Helton has never been on the DL in his career. July 26, 2005 Todd Helton is optimistic his strained left calf will heal enough for him to play in the next few days, according to the AP. He was still walking with a limp on Tuesday, but said it was a precaution because he didn't want to hurt it anymore. "I'm always optimistic that I will get back in the next couple of days. That will be decided after treatment today," Helton said. Manager Clint Hurdle said the Rockies will wait a few days before deciding whether Helton will need to go on the disabled list. July 26, 2005 Todd Helton strained his left calf in the seventh inning Monday and was forced to leave the game, according to the Denver Post. He was examined by club physician Dr. Thomas Noonan and will be re-evaluated today. Helton said he expects to miss a game or two but is not expecting a prolonged absence. July 25, 2005 Todd Helton said his body is sore, but he has no plans to sit out games, according to the Denver Post. "I am beyond repair," said Helton. "But I want to be in there."

After struggling through most of the first half, Helton is now hitting .413 for the month of July. June 4, 2005 Todd Helton was a late scratch Friday night with flulike symptoms, according to the AP.
