Marrero will start in left field and bat eighth Sunday against the Rockies, Hank Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

With the placement of Jarrett Parker (broken clavicle) on the 10-day DL, there will be a lot of reps open in left field, and Marrero could see many of them in the short term. Provided the weather holds up for Sunday's game, Marrero will have started in two of the team's last three games. Aaron Hill or Brandon Belt are also capable of playing the outfield in a pinch, while the recently acquired Melvin Upon Jr., who is currently in the minors, could have a call-up awaiting him.
