Dahl is not starting against southpaw Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
As he has against the last six lefties the Rockies have faced, Dahl will hit the bench in favor of Matt Holliday. Dahl has a career 50 wRC+ against lefties compared to a 124 wRC+ against righties, so the platoon arrangement is a very sensible one.

Dahl went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Giants on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl connected for a solo shot -- his ninth of the year -- off starter Dereck Rodriguez in the second inning, giving him back-to-back games with a home run. Dahl is hitting .265/.317/.494 with 24 RBI, 18 runs and five stolen bases in 170 at-bats this season. The former first-round pick has been seeing the bulk of playing time in left field since being recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque in early August, and things should remain that way as long as he's producing.

Dahl went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's loss to the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl's homer -- his fifth of the season and first since rejoining the big-league club over the weekend -- came in the fourth inning off Chris Archer, though it wouldn't be enough for the Rockies to earn the win. The 24-year-old has appeared in four games since being recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque (starting three), going 4-for-12 with a homer, stolen base and 2:2 K:BB over that stretch. If Dahl continues to produce, it wouldn't be surprising to see him push either Carlos Gonzalez or Gerardo Parra for an everyday role.
