Jordan Pacheco went 2-for-5 with a grand slam and five RBI in Friday's 10-9 win over the Giants.

Pacheco had an RBI ground out in the bottom of the second inning while his fifth-inning grand slam broke a 5-5 tie. With a .313/.360/.410 batting line over 26 games this season, the 27-year-old continues to be a useful player for Colorado. Todd Helton isn't a good bet to hold up and will require regular rest no matter what, so Pacheco should continue to have value in NL-only leagues.

I've been sick. So sick that I was in the hospital for three days. I'm feeling better now, but apparently my brain is still a bit scrambled. Just check out some of the crazy bids I placed this week in the free agent pool. TOUT WARS (15 team mixed): As you know, I've been sick [...]

Jordan Pacheco went 2-for-3 in the Rockies loss to the Mariners Saturday.

Pacheco, 27, seems to be the forgotten man in the Rockies third base mix this spring, with Chris Nelson and prospect Nolan Arenado receiving much of the attention. But Pacheco started 80 games at the hot corner in 2012 and is hitting .407 in Cactus League play. It remains to be seen how the competition will play out, but if Pacheco continues to hit he will force the Rockies to make a tough decision in a few weeks.

Jordan Pacheco recently traveled to San Luis Obispo, California to work with Rockies catching instructor Jerry Weinstein.

Pacheco worked on blocking drills and focused on throwing mechanics. While he only started five games behind the plate last season, the versatility should give him a leg up on keeping a roster spot. "I definitely feel comfortable doing it," said Pacheco. "But I want to make sure the pitchers feel comfortable with me. In spring training, I need to work with them to create that."

Jordan Pacheco had two hits and drove in a pair of runs in a loss to the Diamondbacks on Tuesday night.

Pacheco finished the game 2-for-4 with his 32nd double and two RBI. He's done a very nice job in his first season as a regular for the Rockies, hitting .306/.338/.418 with five homers, 54 RBI and seven stolen bases in 471 at-bats. There should be a role for him on the 2013 squad.
