Pacheco making third base decision tough
Jordan Pacheco - 3B - Colorado Rockies
March 16, 2013 - 8:40 PM ET

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.
