EDGE Analysis
Blackmon drove in his 76th run of the season with an RBI single in the first inning and also chipped in a two-out triple seven frames later. He has emerged out of a prolonged slump and is in the midst of a modest three-game hitting streak, during which he's collected six hits across 13-bats. Though Blackmon is no longer a threat on the basepaths, he has chipped in 16 homers, 59 runs scored and a .263 average across 551 plate appearances on the campaign.

Blackmon went 2-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Blackmon has found a little more consistency at the plate, going 4-for-16 across his last four games. He's also struck out five times in that span. The steal Sunday was his fourth of the season, his most since he stole 12 bases in 2018. The 36-year-old has maintained a .259/.310/.415 slash line with 16 home runs, 75 RBI, 59 runs scored, 20 doubles and five triples in 127 contests, though he's also seen roughly one day off per week lately.

Blackmon is out of the lineup for the first game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty-hitting Blackmon is resting for the early game with southpaw Nick Lodolo on the bump for Cincinnati, but the 36-year-old will presumably check back into the starting nine for the nightcap. C.J. Cron will step in as the Rockies' designated hitter for the early game.

Blackmon is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Atlanta, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Rockies will send two of their lefty-hitting regulars to the bench in the series opener, as Blackmon and Ryan McMahon will both take seats with southpaw Max Fried taking the hill for Atlanta. Blackmon's absence opens up room at designated hitter for C.J. Cron, while Triple-A Albuquerque call-up Michael Toglia makes his MLB debut at Cron's usual first-base spot.
