Blackmon went 2-for-4 with two RBI, two runs scored and a walk Wednesday against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Blackmon delivered a pair of separate RBI knocks to snap a skid of 15 starts without collecting multiple hits. He's struggled to just a .616 OPS across 112 plate appearances to begin the season, though both his barrel and hard-hit rate remain in line with his more productive recent campaigns. If those skills stick, Blackmon should start to see better results, particularly at home.

EDGE Analysis
Blackmon's absence from the lineup looks to be nothing more than routine maintenance while the Rockies and Marlins conclude their series with a day game after a night game. Hunter Goodman will replace Blackmon in the lineup, serving as the Rockies' designated hitter while batting ninth.
