Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Resting versus LHP
Blackmon isn't in Colorado's lineup Friday versus the Giants.
With southpaw Kyle Harrison set to start on the bump for San Francisco, the lefty-hitting Blackmon will take a seat to begin Friday's contest. His absence will move Elias Diaz into the DH role, allowing Jacob Stallings to start behind the dish.

Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Getting rest Wednesday lineup

Blackmon went 2-for-6 with a two-run home run and a walk in Monday's 9-8 victory over the Red Sox in 12 inning.

Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Goes deep again Saturday
Blackmon went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Mets on Saturday.
Blackmon brought the Rockies to within a run with his two-run blast in the fifth frame, but that was the last time Colorado was able to score. The homer was Blackmon's second in as many games since he returned from a hamstring injury that resulted in him sitting out three matchups. The veteran outfielder had gone deep just twice over his previous 26 games prior to leaving the park in back-to-back contests.

Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Belts fifth homer
Blackmon went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Friday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.
The 38-year-old outfielder lofted a Jake Diekman fastball off the facing of the second deck in right field at Citi Field in the eighth inning, one of nine combined homers by the two teams on the night -- the highest single-game total in the majors this season. Blackmon missed the prior three games with a sore hamstring, but he looked healthy in his return as the DH. The blast was his second long ball through eight games in July, and his fifth of the year.

Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: In lineup Friday
Blackmon (hamstring) is the DH and batting leadoff Friday against the Mets.
Blackmon has been nursing a sore right hamstring stemming from a sliding catch he made Monday. After spending three straight games on the bench, the 37-year-old is back in the starting nine Friday, although he's still not quite ready for a defensive role. Blackmon is slashing .256/.325/.402 with four homers and five stolen bases over 280 plate appearances this season.

Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Out again due to hamstring issue
Blackmon is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Reds due to a slight right hamstring injury, MLB.com reports.
Manager Bud Black said that Blackmon "tweaked" his hamstring while making a sliding catch during Monday's 6-0 loss to the Reds. The lefty-hitting Blackmon received a planned day off Tuesday while the Reds sent southpaw Nick Lodolo to the mound, but the 38-year-old's continued absences from the lineup against right-handed starters Frankie Montas and Hunter Greene on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, signals that Blackmon is still being slowed by the injury. Blackmon had been available for pinch-hitting duties in Wednesday's 6-5 win but went unused, so he could once again be a candidate to come off the bench Thursday.

Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Out against right-hander
Blackmon is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Cincinnati.
The lefty-hitting Blackmon sat out Tuesday's 12-6 loss with a lefty (Nick Lodolo) on the mound, but it's a bit more surprising that he's on the bench again Wednesday while right-hander Frankie Montas takes the hill for Cincinnati. The Rockies will give Brenton Doyle a start at designated hitter in Blackmon's stead while Sam Hilliard patrols center field.

Rockies' Charlie Blackmon: Returns from IL
The Rockies reinstated Blackmon (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Saturday.
Blackmon has been held out of action since he strained his right hamstring June 18 against the Dodgers, but he was able to recover quickly and will now return from the IL following a minimum-length stay. The 37-year-old outfielder had been heating up at the plate prior to getting injured, slashing .333/.397/.509 across 63 plate appearances since the beginning of June. Sean Bouchard (back) was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move.
