WASHINGTON — David Dahl is an outfielder with tantalizing talent and still untapped potential.
In manager Bud Black’s opinion, Dahl has made big strides this season, perhaps more than any other Rockies position player. That’s saying a lot.
But Dahl — despite his first All-Star Game selection, a .303 average, 13 home runs and a knack for big hits in big moments — considers himself a work in progress.
“I think I had a good first half, but I kind of slowed down right before the all-star break,” Dahl said Monday before the Rockies-Nationals game was postponed because of the threat of heavy rain.
