CHARLIE BLACKMON NEWS

Gets rest Tuesday Blackmon is not starting Tuesday against the Nationals.

Impact The outfielder's hitting streak ended at eight games after he went 0-for-4 with a walk and run scored Monday. He'll get his second day off in less than a week as Yonathan Daza draws the start in right field against lefty Patrick Corbin on Tuesday.

Hitting streak reaches eight Blackmon will start in right field and bat third Monday against the Nationals.

Impact Blackmon will head into the final week of the regular season with an eight-game hitting streak on the line. Though he's delivered a .400 average over that stretch, his production has mostly been devoid of counting stats (zero home runs, zero stolen bases, four runs and three RBI). Barring a massive surge over Colorado's final six games, Blackmon will finish 2021 with his lowest home run total (he's currently at 13) in a 162-game season since 2013 and his lowest batting average (currently .273) since his 27-game rookie campaign in 2011.

Belts grand slam Blackmon went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in Thursday's loss against Atlanta.

Impact Blackmon entered this game in a 2-for-24 slump but snapped that drought in style with a bases-loaded blast in the fifth inning. The veteran outfielder has been struggling in recent weeks and his overall season numbers have gone south compared to recent years. He only has 11 homers while hitting .267 -- a figure that ranks as the worst of his career excluding the year in which he debuted (2011).
