Blackmon departed Friday's Cactus League contest versus the Giants with mid-back stiffness, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blackmon played the top of the first inning on defense but was removed before he could take an at-bat. It's not clear at this point whether it's a day-to-day type injury or possibly something more. The Rockies should have more on Blackmon's status after the game.
