Blackmon (back) is not in the lineup Sunday against the Braves, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Blackmon will be withheld from the starting lineup after exiting early Saturday with apparent back tightness. It doesn't appear that he's dealing with a serious injury, and the Rockies likely are simply exercising caution with their prized outfielder. Blackmon will remain day-to-day heading into the Monday series opener with the Padres. Mike Tauchman draws the start in center field in his absence.
