Rockies' Joshua Fuentes: Opportunities dwindling
Josh Fuentes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners, AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain reports.Fuentes went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored in Tuesday's 6-4 loss while making his first start of the second half. The 28-year-old has cracked the lineup only three times in the last 11 games, and his playing-time outlook is unlikely to improve while corner infielders Ryan McMahon and C.J. Cron are fully healthy.
