Losing grip on starting role Fuentes will sit for the third straight game Saturday against the Phillies.

Impact Fuentes started 14 of the Rockies' first 17 games, but he hasn't performed well at all at the plate, hitting .175/.175/.298 through 57 plate appearances. He doesn't appear to be the team's top option at third base any more. Ryan McMahon makes his third straight start there Saturday, with Garrett Hampson again moving in from center field to second base and Yonathan Daza making his third start in a row in center. That appears to be Colorado's default alignment for now.
