Colorado Rockies at Pittsburgh Pirates series preview

Chuck Nasty has been sensational. With a .337 batting average and 15 home runs, Blackmon has set out to be one of the best outfielders in all of baseball. He has been able to get on base phenomenally well, along with having above average power. Remind you of anyone? Try the 2013 and 2014 Andrew McCutchen, who averaged 23 home runs along with a .316 batting average in those two years. This year, Blackmon is on pace to shatter those numbers. While McCutchen isn’t in quite the form he used to be, it will still be fun to watch someone who dominated not too long ago against someone who is dominating right now.
