What It Means:

Blackmon will take a seat after he went 0-for-4 with a walk and a strikeout on Tuesday. Hunter Goodman will cover right field in the matinee and hit second. Nolan Jones will fill in for Blackmon as the Rockies' leadoff batter. Kris Bryant will hit third and Elehuris Montero will clean things up for Colorado as the designated hitter.

numberFire’s models project Goodman ($3,300) for 7.7 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Rockies' implied total is 5.06, fourth-best on the board, and the game total is the highest of the day at Coors Field. Taillon has a woeful 5.27 ERA and 5.15 xERA this season, with an unimposing 21.5% strikeout rate.
