Amarista is out of the lineup Saturday against the Rockies.
Analysis:
Amarista will get a night off Saturday in favor of Clint Barmes, who will bat eighth. While he remains the primary shortstop for the Padres, Amarista's .196/.304/.328 batting line to begin the season could eventually lead to more days off.
