Alexi Amarista on Rockies' bench versus San Diego

Colorado Rockies utility player Alexi Amarista is not in the starting lineup versus the San Diego Padres on Wednesday afternoon.

What It Means:

Amarista will return to the bench after drawing the start at third base on Tuesday. Nolan Arenado will man the hot corner for Colorado while batting third versus Padres southpaw Clayton Richard.

Amarista is slashing .261/.286/.383 in 56 games this season. numberFire's models expect him to record a .250 batting average in 86 plate appearances over the remainder of the year.
