Ian Desmond not in Rockies' lineup on Saturday

Colorado Rockies first baseman Ian Desmond will sit against the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday.

What It Means:

Desmond will head to the bench with Ryan McMahon shifting to first base and DJ LeMahieu starting at second base.

Our models project Desmond to hit .254 with 5 home runs, 16 RBI, and 16 runs in 128 more plate appearances this season.
