Amarista is out of the lineup Sunday against the Reds, the San Diego Union-Tribune reports. Amarista has made four straight starts at shortstop, but will sit in favor of Clint Barmes in what appears to be a routine day of rest. The 26-year-old Amarista is 4-for-16 with two doubles and three RBI to begin the month of June.

Amarista remains out of the lineup Monday against the Mets. Amarista will give way to Clint Barmes at shortstop for the second game in a row in the third time in four days. Neither Amarista nor Barmes offers much upside with the bat, and with Barmes at least representing a top-noth option defensively, it looks like manager Bud Black has decided to go with the lesser of two evils for the time being.

Amarista isn't in Sunday's lineup against the Pirates. Amarista's struggles at the plate have kept him out of the lineup recently, and he'll sit again Sunday. Clint Barmes will start in his place once again, batting eighth for the Padres.

Amarista is out of the lineup Friday against the Pirates. Amarista continues to struggle at the dish, batting just .188 on the whole this season. Clint Barmes will start at shortstop again Friday, as the Padres look to get any offensive production they can out of the shortstop position.

Amarista is not in the lineup Saturday against the Dodgers, Eric Stephen of SB Nation reports. Will Middlebrooks is set to make his first career start at shortstop with Amarista sitting in the midst of an 8-for-50 slump. Middlebrooks' ability to handle the position defensively will likely dictate how the playing time shakes out in the days and weeks ahead.

Amarista is out of the lineup Friday against the Dodgers, Padres broadcaster Bob Scanlan reports. Clint Barmes will get the nod at short as Amarista sits for the second time in three days. Prior to sitting Wednesday, Amarista had started 11 of 13, but he's posted a dismal .160/.222/.200 batting line so far in May.

Amarista is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Cubs. Amarista has gone 0-for-6 at the plate over the last two contests, dropping his average to .192 on the season. He'll cede Wednesday's start to Clint Barmes at shortstop, who'll bat eighth for the Padres.

Amarista is out of the lineup Friday against the Nationals. Amarista has collected a hit in each of the last two games following a rough stretch prior. He'll take a seat again Friday, however, as Clint Barmes will take another start at shortstop and bat eighth for the Padres.

Amarista is out of the lineup Tuesday, the Tacoma News Tribune's Bob Dutton reports. Clint Barmes will get a rare start at shortstop to give Amarista a day off. While he has been seeing pretty regular starts at shortstop, Amarista's struggles at the plate may soon lead to him falling into more of a part-time role.

Amarista is not in the lineup Monday against the Giants. Amarista has struggled at the plate as he sports a slash line of just .183/.310/.283 and will head to the bench for the second time in three games and the third time in the last five games. Clint Barmes will get the start at shortstop in his stead.
