Drops third straight Blalock (1-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Tigers, allowing five runs (four earned) on five hits and five walks over four innings. He struck out four.

Impact Blalock gave up a lead-off homer to Parker Meadows in the first inning before he was tagged for another four runs in the second, with three scoring on a Riley Greene bases-loaded triple. It's the third straight loss for the 23-year-old Blalock -- he's allowed 14 earned runs in just 13 innings in that span while issuing 11 walks in his last two starts (nine innings). Overall, Blalock sports a 5.87 ERA with a 1.79 WHIP and 20:19 K:BB through his first 29.2 big-league innings. He'll look for a better result in his next outing, currently scheduled for this weekend against the Cubs at home.

Done in by first inning Wednesday Blalock (1-2) took the loss against Atlanta on Wednesday, allowing four runs on four hits and six walks while striking out two batters over five innings.

Impact All of the runs Blalock allowed came with two outs in the first inning, as Atlanta scored four runs in a span of four batters on a pair of doubles, a walk and a Jarred Kelenic homer. Though Blalock didn't allow any runs in the remainder of his five frames, he also walked a batter in each of those innings and finished with a career-worst six free passes. The rookie right-hander yielded a respectable six runs over 16.2 frames over his first three starts, but in his subsequent two outings he's given up 11 runs (10 earned) in nine frames.

Hit hard vs. Marlins Blalock (1-1) took the loss Thursday against the Marlins, allowing seven runs (six earned) on nine hits and a walk over four innings. He struck out three.

Impact It was a tough day for Blalock, who allowed a pair of runs in his first three innings before giving up a five-spot in the fourth. The 23-year-old right-hander had gotten off to a nice start before Thursday, pitching to a 3.06 ERA across his first 17.2 big-league innings. Blalock now sports a 4.98 ERA on the season with a 1.62 WHIP and 14:8 K:BB. Should the Rockies elect to keep him in the rotation, Blalock would line up for a road start in Atlanta next week.

Earns first career win Blalock (1-0) earned the win against the Yankees on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and four walks with five strikeouts over 5.1 innings.

Impact Blalock was given an early lead and pitched well enough to earn his first major-league victory. While some efficiency issues have prevented him from earning a quality start, the rookie has allowed three earned runs or fewer while pitching into the sixth inning in each of his three starts with the Rockies. On the season, he owns a 3.06 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 11:8 K:BB across 17.2 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Marlins next week.

Limits Padres to one run Blalock allowed one run on six hits and three walks while striking out two over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Padres on Sunday.

Impact Blalock came up an out short of a quality start for the second outing in a row, and he was also pulled before the Rockies gained the lead in the bottom of the sixth inning. While he walked three, it was still another positive performance for the 23-year-old in his Coors Field debut. Blalock has a 2.92 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 6:4 K:BB over 12.1 innings across three appearances (two starts) between Colorado and Milwaukee this year. Despite his decent pitching, Blalock may be sent back to Triple-A Albuquerque if Ryan Feltner (shoulder) is able to return from the injured list this week without requiring a rehab assignment, though Tanner Gordon has been less inspiring as a fill-in starter for Colorado's injury-plagued rotation.

Drawing another start Blalock is scheduled to start Sunday's game against the Padres at Coors Field.

Impact The right-hander will earn a second straight turn through the rotation after he fell just shy of delivering a quality start in his Rockies debut Monday, when he took a no-decision while limiting a potent Diamondbacks lineup to three earned runs on six hits and no walks. That outing came at a more neutral offensive environment at Chase Field, but Blalock will be difficult to rely upon Sunday while he pitches for the first time at the notoriously hitter-friendly Coors Field.

Decent in first big-league start Blalock allowed three runs on six hits and no walks while striking out four batters over 5.2 innings in a no-decision against Arizona on Monday.

Impact This was just the second major-league appearance for Blalock -- his first came was a one-inning relief cameo June 20 while he was still with Milwaukee. The righty fared pretty well in his first MLB start, holding the Diamondbacks to one run through five innings before consecutive two-out hits in the sixth resulted in two more runs crossing the plate against him. Blalock promisingly didn't walk any batters, and he induced 10 whiffs on 96 pitches. The Rockies' rotation has been hit hard by injuries of late, so Blalock figures to have earned himself at least another start, which tentatively lines up to come at home against San Diego.

Making first major-league start Blalock was recalled from Double-A Hartford and he will start in Monday's game against the Diamondbacks, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Impact With Cal Quantrill dealing with general forearm soreness, German Marquez (elbow) out for the season and Ryan Feltner (shoulder) and Dakota Hudson (eblow) both on the 15-day injured list, the Rockies were slim on options in their starting rotation and have opted to call up Blalock from Hartford. Blalock was acquired by Colorado in late July as part of the package for right-hander Nick Mears. Blalock is 5-3 across 18 starts in Double-A this season with a 4.36 ERA and 1.32 WHIP across 86.2 innings. He appeared in one game for the Brewers out of the bullpen in June, and his start Monday will be the first of his major-league career.

Shipped to Colorado The Rockies acquired Blalock and right-hander Yujanyer Herrera from the Brewers on Saturday in exchange for right-hander Nick Mears, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Blalock made one appearance with the Brewers this season, walking one batter in a scoreless inning. The 23-year-old has primarily pitched at the Double-A level, starting 16 games this season and posting a 4.08 ERA and 64:27 K:BB across 75 innings for Biloxi. He'll likely report to Double-A Hartford with his new organization.

Recalled by Milwaukee The Brewers recalled Blalock from Double-A Biloxi on Wednesday.

Impact Blalock was sent down by Milwaukee in late May but is back with the big club ahead of Wednesday's series finale in Anaheim. The 23-year-old was up with the Brewers for a few days but is still looking to make his MLB debut.

JUNE 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ticketed for Double-A The Brewers optioned Blalock to Double-A Biloxi on Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Blalock was added to the Brewers' 40-man roster this winter and is seen as one of the organization's top pitching prospects, but he's most likely a year or more away from making his MLB debut. The 22-year-old righty split time between the Single-A and High-A levels in the Red Sox and Brewers organizations in 2023, logging a collective 2.82 ERA and 75:20 K:BB in 67 innings over his 15 starts.
