Charlie Blackmon Out Of Thursday's Lineup
3 years agoColorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon isn't in the team's lineup on Thursday ahead of a matchup with the Chicago Cubs and right-handed starter Jake Arrieta. The outfielder is batting .269 with a .352 on-base percentage, six home runs, and a pair of stolen bases in 395 plate appearances this season. Sam Hilliard is starting in Blackmon's place in right field and batting sixth. Hilliard is hitting .188 with a .270 on-base percentage, six home runs, and a stolen base in 89 plate appearances this year. The 27-year-old certainly has the potential to hit a home run or two, but you're probably better off looking elsewhere for a streaming option.
