Both first baseman Adam LaRoche and second baseman Freddy Sanchez were out of Monday's starting lineups due to injuries they sustained during Sunday's 3-1 loss to San Diego.
LaRoche is out with a strained ribcage muscle and he could be out more than just a day or two. Depending on the severity, injuries like that tend to take more time to heal which could lead to a week or more without LaRoche and possibly a stint on the disabled list.
Sanchez is out with lower back spasms.
Shortstop Jack Wilson, who has been batting either eighth or ninth the majority of the season, moved up to second in the order Monday in the series opener against Colorado. Chris Gomez played second and batted ninth. Doug Mientkiewicz started at first base and batted fifth and Jose Bautista was back in the lineup at third base and batted seventh.
