The Rockies could go 0-162, and 2016 still would be a winning season with those new batting helmets.

Last year, it took Zack Greinke 30.2 innings to allow his first six runs. This year, it took him 3 innings. #DBacks

Admit it, you’re now running the lineup through your head, wondering how they can blow this.
— Chris Chrisman (@chrischrisman) April 5, 2016
Trevor Story is destined for greatness. Only legends like Mark Quinn and Bob Nieman have had 2 HR and 4 RBI in their major league debut
— Jeremy Deischer (@roxbombers) April 5, 2016
Ok, guys, redesign, whaddya got?
We’re thinking red and white.
But we’re already red and white.
Yes, but we put red in random places.
