Stallings is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against San Diego.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings will move to the bench for 22-year-old Drew Romo's MLB debut Saturday. With Elias Diaz out of the picture in Colorado, Stallings and Romo are slated to share catching duties during the closing weeks of the regular season.

Stallings went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings sent one out to left in the seventh for his second homer in as many games. The 34-year-old has three homers, eight RBI, six runs and a 4:4 BB:K over his last eight games. Stallings has a real chance to reach double-digit homers for the first time in his career. He's now slashing .270/.369/.471 with seven homers, 27 RBI, 23 runs and a 22:42 BB:K in 204 plate appearances.

Stallings hit a solo home run as a pinch hitter in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings' eighth-inning blast brought the Rockies within a run, but they failed to tie the game. The backup catcher went 8-for-19 over a five-game span from July 20-26, but he followed it up with an 0-for-8 skid before Saturday's homer. For the year, he's at a .265/.367/.453 slash line with six homers, 26 RBI, 22 runs scored, 12 doubles and no stolen bases over 60 contests. Despite those decent numbers, he remains behind Elias Diaz on the depth chart at catcher.

Stallings went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, four RBI and three runs scored Wednesday against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings contributed significantly to the Rockies' 20-run outburst, accounting for his first multi-RBI performance since June 12. With Elias Diaz seemingly past his calf injury, Stallings should be relegated to more of a backup role.

Stallings will start at catcher and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings will pick up his third start in four games, but his playing time is set to take a hit now that top backstop Elias Diaz has shaken the calf injury that kept him out of the lineup Sunday and Monday. Diaz is back on the bench Wednesday, but his absence looks to be a byproduct of the Rockies playing a day game after a night game. Though his playing time has been mostly sporadic this season, Stallings has performed well at the dish when called upon; he'll take a .770 OPS into Wednesday's contest.

Stallings is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings had started at catcher in each of the past three games, but he should be headed for a stark downturn in playing time after the Rockies reinstated Elias Diaz (calf) from the 10-day injured list Sunday. Diaz will be eased back into the lineup Sunday as the Rockies' designated hitter while Hunter Goodman handles catching duties, but Diaz should see the bulk of the reps behind the dish moving forward.

Stallings isn't in the Rockies' lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings will take a seat for Sunday's series finale after going 1-for-3 with an RBI and a walk during Saturday's win. Hunter Goodman will take over behind the dish, causing Brendan Rodgers to move into the DH spot while Alan Trejo starts at second base, batting ninth.

Stallings is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Dodgers, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings will get a breather while the Rockies conclude their series with the Dodgers with a day game after a night game. Hunter Goodman will fill in behind the plate for Stallings, who went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored while catching eight innings of Wednesday's 7-6 win.

Stallings is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings had started in five of six games since Elias Diaz's (calf) injury, but he'll yield to Hunter Goodman behind the dish Tuesday. Both Stallings and Goodman have been red-hot at the plate lately, with Stallings riding a six-game hit streak with four extra-base hits and four runs scored since June 10 and Goodman swatting three homers over his last three games. Regardless, Stallings should see most of the catching work moving forward.

Stallings went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Monday against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings has taken over as the Rockies' primary catcher in the absence of Elias Diaz (calf). He's started six of the team's last seven games, collecting seven hits across 18 at-bats with three RBI and four runs scored. Stallings has also hit cleanup in the past two contests.
