Blackmon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.
Blackmon is 1-for-9 with a double, an RBI and four strikeouts over the first two games of the season and will take a seat Sunday with southpaw Julio Urias on the mound for Los Angeles. Randal Grichuk will man right field with Yonathan Daza starting in center for the series finale.
