Blackmon went 3-for-3 with a solo home run and three runs scored during Friday's win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Blackmon shifted down to the three-hole Thursday with Nolan Arenado taking a breather, but the center fielder was right back in the leadoff spot Friday. With a .318/.372/.581 slash line, 19 homers, 60 RBI, seven stolen bases and 70 runs, Blackmon is having another monster fantasy campaign.

Blackmon will hit out of the three-hole for Thursday's game against Cincinnati, The Denver Post's Patrick Saunders reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Nolan Arenado getting the day off, Blackmon will move from the leadoff spot to third while Raimel Tapia heads to the top of the order. Blackmon has been hitting the ball extremely well all season, hitting .311/.365/.571 with 18 home runs and 59 RBI, so this move comes as a surprise. All that said, Blackmon will likely return to the leadoff spot for Friday's game against the White Sox.

Blackmon went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and two RBI during Thursday's loss to Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
The outfielder is taking a run at a career year and continues to provide elite fantasy numbers. Blackmon ranks among the top 10 in the majors in RBI (56), runs (62), and batting average (.326), and his 16 homers and five stolen bases round out his beastly cross-category return.

Blackmon is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
This will be a rare day off for Blackmon, who has played every game since May 18. He has carried his hot start to the season into June, where he's slashing .344/.438/.607 with six doubles and nine RBI in 61 at-bats. Raimel Tapia will take over in center field in place of Blackmon on Saturday, but look for Blackmon to draw back in for Sunday's series finale.

Blackmon went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored during Saturday's win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Blackmon remains a set-and-forget fantasy star and sports a .338/.384/.635 slash line with 15 bombs, 53 RBI, five stolen bases and 51 runs. He's well on his way to a career year in every category except stolen bases, and playing half his games at Coors Field helps both his virtual floor and ceiling.

Blackmon went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs and two RBI in Wednesday's 8-1 win over Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
The Rockies leadoff man has been one of the best offensive weapons in the game since mid-April. In his last 44 games, Blackmon is hitting .368 with nine home runs, 38 runs and 38 RBI. He's even added in four SBs for good measure. For the season, his .985 OPS ranks seventh in the National League. In a lineup filled with offensive stars, Blackmon is primed to continue his excellent production.

Blackmon went 2-for-5 with a double and a strikeout Sunday during Colorado's 3-1 win over San Diego.
EDGE Analysis
After an extremely impressive May, in which Blackmon hit .359 with six home runs and 22 RBI, all signs point to him continuing that success into June. His strikeout numbers remain high, but Blackmon will be considered a top-tier outfielder and fantasy option the rest of the season.

Blackmon went 4-for-4 with a walk, a triple, a home run and three RBI in Friday's 10-0 win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
The homer was his 12th of the season and helped spark an eight-run rally in the eighth inning that put the game out of reach. Blackmon now has a career-high 1.007 OPS, and his 45 RBI leads the majors -- an impressive feat for a leadoff hitter.

Blackmon went 2-for-4 with a pair of two-run home runs in Tuesday's 8-2 win over Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
It was a productive day for Colorado's center fielder, who now has 11 home runs and 40 RBI on the season. He continues to shine atop the Rockies' order, now slashing an impressive .325/.361/.618. He's as reliable as they come across all categories in fantasy.

Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
His two-run blast, Blackmon's ninth homer of the season, capped a four-run sixth inning that blew open the game. The 30-year-old is putting up the best power numbers of his career so far to fuel a career-high .979 OPS, but fantasy GMs hoping for another five-category performance from him might be disappointed by his 2-for-4 showing on stolen base attempts through 39 games.
