Dahl went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Sunday's loss to the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
He's now hit safely in all seven games since he was called up, pushing Dahl's slash line in the majors to .370/.393/.630. The Rockies get a day off Monday before beginning an eight-game homestand, so don't look for the rookie to cool down any time soon.

Dahl has been added to the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports. He will man left field and bat seventh.
EDGE Analysis
He was originally slated to sit in favor of Ryan Raburn with the Rockies facing a lefty in Steven Matz, but Raburn was scratched due a knee bruise. Dahl was hitting .333/.375/.400 against left-handed pitching with Triple-A Albuquerque prior to his callup.

Dahl is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ryan Raburn will get the nod in left field with lefty Steven Matz toeing the rubber for New York. Dahl started four straight after getting the call to the major leagues, going 5-for-15 with a homer and six strikeouts, and it appears the 22-year-old will continue to play regularly against right-handed pitching at least until Gerardo Parra (ankle) is ready to return.

Dahl started his third career game Wednesday, and went 1-for-4 with his first career home run and a pair of strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl's first career home run should come as a surprise to no one, as he flashed solid power in the minor leagues, slugging .569 between Double-A Hartford and Triple-A Albuquerque before being called up this season. The dinger was extra sweet for Dahl as it chased Baltimore starter Dylan Bundy, who entered the inning carrying a perfect game through five. Dahl should continue to get regular starts moving forward.

Dahl is starting in center field and hitting second for the Rockies on Wednesday, Rockies PR reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl will face off against against right-hander Dylan Bundy and the Orioles at Camden Yards on Wednesday. Since being promoted on Monday, the 22 year-old top prospect has started each of the three games in the outfield for the Rockies.

Dahl will hit sixth and play left field for the second straight day on Tuesday, Rockies PR reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl, who made his first career start on Monday, will face right-hander Chris Tillman and the Orioles on Tuesday. Ryan Raburn will be the odd man out for the second straight day, which suggests that the Rockies called up Dahl to be a mainstay in the starting lineup.

Dahl went 1-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in his big league debut Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The Rockies started Dahl in left field and had him batting sixth in the order against Yovani Gallardo and the Orioles on Monday night. Dahl will play on the large side of a platoon, if not every day, for Colorado, at least until Gerardo Parra returns, but it's easy to see a scenario in which the Rockies deal an outfielder or two before the August 1 non-waiver trade deadline.

Dahl's contract was selected from Triple-A and he will start in left field and hit sixth Monday in Baltimore, ROOT Sports' Jenny Cavnar reports.
EDGE Analysis
One of the top fantasy prospects in the game, Dahl was called up Monday in a somewhat surprising move, as the non-contending Rockies will start his service time clock despite the fact that he was not on the 40-man roster and had logged just 16 games at Triple-A. Dahl, 22, slashed .314/.394/.569 with 18 home runs and 17 steals in 92 games between Double-A and Triple-A, and should immediately be added in almost all formats. He will presumably play almost every day in left field and could move up in the order if he gets off to a hot start. There have not been many impact minor leaguers called up this season, but Dahl has a good chance of being an exception to that trend.

Dahl is to be promoted from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl, the Rockies No. 2 prospect, will likely replace reserve outfielder Brandon Barnes, who is expected to be designated for assignment soon. The 22-year old has impressed lately, slashing .484/.529/.887 over 62 at-bats in 16 games at the Triple-A level.

Dahl, 22, went 3-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in his debut for Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The toolsy Dahl is among the top outfield prospects in baseball. He hit .278/.367/.500 with 13 home runs, 45 RBI and 16 steals in 76 games at Double-A before being promoted. He should be a September call up for the Rockies, though his ascension to the big leagues could be streamlined if Colorado decides to sell off parts at the trade deadline.
