McMahon is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mets.
The Rockies are wrapping up their series with a day game after a night game and are facing off against a lefty (David Peterson), so manager Bud Black likely viewed Thursday's contest as a good opportunity to give the lefty-hitting McMahon some off time. Aaron Schunk will step in at third base in place of McMahon, who had gone hitless in each of his last six starts, bringing his batting average down to .252 for the season.
