Charlie Blackmon is in a slump. And a pretty deep one at that.
He entered the Rockies’ Tuesday night game against the Giants at Coors Field slashing .212/.271/.323 with one home run and nine RBIs in 28 games.
When asked about his funk at the plate, Blackmon crisply replied, “I just don’t think I’m getting any hits right now.”
When asked to expand on the reasons why, Blackmon said, “I think my peripherals aren’t bad right now. It’s just that things aren’t going my way right now.”
Peripherals?
“I don’t think I’m chasing way more, and I don’t think I’m making bad decisions in the box any more than I was,” he said.
