McMahon went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, two walks and three runs scored in Sunday's win over the Padres.
McMahon capped off his strong weekend with a solo home run in the eighth to extend the Rockies lead. He's now homered four times this month and has raised his OPS to .736 after posting a .508 OPS in March/April. In his last seven games, McMahon is hitting .500/.607/1.091 with a 6:5 BB:K. He's notoriously been more effective in Denver and will aim to keep his hot bat going this week despite the Rockies having all their games on the road.

Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Stays hot
Rotowire
McMahon went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and three runs scored Friday against the Padres.

Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Heating up at plate
Rotowire
McMahon went 4-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, a walk, two total runs and two total RBI in Wednesday's extra-inning loss to the Tigers.
McMahon and Michael Toglia teamed up to notch all six of the Rockies' extra-base hits Wednesday, though the pair's performance wasn't enough to upset Detroit. McMahon endured an awful start to the season, batting just .147 with a mere four RBI over 29 games through the end of April. However, the veteran third baseman has begun to turn things around in May -- he's hit safely and driven in at least one run in four of five contests this month, and he's notched five extra-base hits (two doubles, a triple and two homers) in that span.

Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Gets back into RBI column
Rotowire
McMahon went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's win over the Giants.
It was a much-needed homer for McMahon, who hadn't recorded an RBI since April 9. During this time, the defensive-minded third baseman has gone a miserable 5-for-65 (.077) with two doubles and seven runs scored over 19 games. McMahon's defensive acumen should keep him in an everyday role at the hot corner, but he's difficult to justify as a fantasy option until he strings together some better performances.

Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Sitting Sunday
Rotowire
McMahon is not in Colorado's starting lineup against Cincinnati on Sunday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
McMahon has failed to record a hit over his last seven games and has gone 2-for-50 with a 41.7 percent strikeout rate since April 11. Amid his struggles, McMahon will begin Sunday's contest in the dugout while Kyle Farmer starts at the hot corner and bats fifth against Reds left-hander Nick Lodolo.

Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Hitting well during first homestand
Rotowire

Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Drills first homer of campaign
Rotowire
McMahon went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Saturday in a loss to the Athletics.
McMahon cut Colorado's deficit to three runs with an eighth-inning solo shot to center field, but that was the final run scored by either team. The long ball was the first of the season for the veteran third baseman, who has slugged between 20 and 24 homers each of the past five full seasons (excluding the pandemic-shortened 2020 campaign). McMahon's two-hit effort Saturday was his first multi-hit performance since he went 3-for-3 on Opening Day.

Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Reaches base four times in loss
Rotowire
McMahon went 3-for-3 with a double, two singles and a walk in a 3-2 loss to the Rays on Friday.
The third baseman was a problem for Tampa pitching and should benefit from hitting behind Brenton Doyle and Ezequiel Tovar in the Colorado lineup. McMahon has hit 20-plus homers every year since 2019 -- except for the pandemic-shortened 2020 season in which he hit nine in 52 games.
McMahon has gone 7-for-19 with seven walks across nine Cactus League games.
McMahon has maintained at least a 10 percent walk rate in three straight regular seasons, so his elevated walk rate in the spring isn't much of a surprise. While he has only two extra-base hits in the exhibition season, he has maintained at least a .165 ISO in five of his last six campaigns.
