Blackmon went 2-for-5 with a home run and a stolen base Sunday against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Blackmon broke a 5-5 tie in the 10th inning when he took Los Angeles reliever Phil Bickford deep to right field. Blackmon also singled and stole his first base of the season earlier in the game. The 35-year-old isn't producing the same power production fantasy managers had become accustomed to in the past -- Sunday's homer was just his fifth of the year -- but his .362 on-base percentage makes him plenty useful in OBP formats, and he's tied for second on the Rockies with 43 RBI.

Blackmon went 1-for-4 with two RBI, a walk and a strikeout in Colorado's 3-0 shutout of San Diego on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Blackmon got the Rockies on the board with his two-run single off Joe Musgrove in the fifth and walked earlier in the third. The veteran outfielder is currently enduring his worst full-time season with a .731 OPS but has gone 7-for-his-last-17.

Blackmon went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
All three of Blackmon's hits went for singles and he ended up scoring in the eighth on a throwing error by catcher Daulton Varsho. The 34-year-old Blackmon now has back-to-back multi-hit games and 15 total for the year, but for the most part he's lost his power and knack for stealing bases. He's slashing .267/.364/.374 with four homers, 38 RBI, 35 runs, and a 35:43 BB:K over 313 plate appearances.

Blackmon went 3-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and two runs in Tuesday's 8-0 win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran outfielder finished with his fifth three-hit game of the campaign and first since June 3. His infield single in the fifth inning knocked in the Rockies' fourth run and accounted for his 38th RBI of the campaign. Blackmon is slashing a modest .264/.366/.378 overall, though his 0.89 BB/K is the highest of his career.

Blackmon went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, three RBI and two runs scored during Thursday's victory over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Blackmon's fourth long ball of the season came against Mike Foltynewicz in the third inning. He actually reached base on four occasions, starting off with a hit-by-pitch in the first frame. He then singled in the sixth and knocked in a two-run double in the seventh. It was the ninth multi-hit game of the season for the 34-year-old, who got off to a slow start but seems to be heating up lately with eight hits in his last four games. Blackmon is slashing .262/.362/.407 overall.
