Colorado Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez is out of the lineup on Friday against the Texas Rangers.
Gonzalez was dealing with a rib issue early in the week, so he's probably just getting a rest day with a lefty on the mound. Noel Cuevas is starting in right field and batting ninth.
Gonzalez is batting .263/.313/.431 with 6 home runs and 26 RBIs this season.
