Colorado snapped a six-game slide with a 4-2 win in San Diego, ending a 41-inning scoreless stretch. Bradley Blalock returns to start for the Rockies against Dylan Cease as Colorado chases July form and tries to make Cease work. Cease still has swing-and-miss upside, but his numbers reflect a down year; Colorado must grind at the plate and exploit mistakes. First pitch 6:40 p.m. MDT; Rockies.tv; KOA 850 AM/94.1 FM; KNRV 1150 (Spanish).

The win carries fantasy implications: Blalock could emerge as a speculative streamer if command returns, while Cease’s upside remains tied to strikeouts even as his ERA regresses. The Rockies’ patience at the plate will be tested on the road trip, and this matchup could tilt decisions for deep-league rosters.
