What is left to say about Larry Walker? What is left for a Colorado Rockies fan to read or hear or know about Larry Walker? If you’ve come across this, the chances are incredibly high that you know all the stats and anecdotes and moments and milestones. You know he put up more career WAR in less time than Yankees…...
The Colorado Rockies hammered some Cy Young candidates and drove the Dodgers to the edge but the breaks went LAs way in the series loss.
The Colorado Rockies return home to put their stamp on the MLB Postseason races. We break down our picks for division winners, Wild Card, MVP, and Cy Young.
Since May 21, the Colorado Rockies are 55-51. Because of the screwed up economics of baseball, trying to lose is a viable strategy for at least third of the teams in MLB so it makes perfect sense that some would see this not as success but rather as a failure of another kind. After all, they aren’t making the postseason…...
Time. Space. Reality. It’s more than a linear path. It’s a prism of endless possibility where a single choice can branch out into infinite realities… I am a Colorado Rockies writer. I am your guide to these vast new realities. Follow me and ponder the question… “What If?” It’s November 26, 2018. And a soon-to-be 29-year old C.J. Cron is…...
How much difference can one year make? If you’ve been watching the Colorado Rockies lately, you’ve probably noticed that they’ve been a much better ballclub since the end of May. If you’ve been watching closely, you’ve definitely still noticed that several of their fundamental flaws remains the same, though. The offense is unreliable, especially on the road where the whole…...
Connor Joe’s grand slam and Brendan Rodger’s 5 RBI performance miraculously lifted the Colorado Rockies over the Chicago Cubs in one of the most entertaining games in years.
It has been the moveable object vs. the resistible force as the Road Colorado Rockies take on the Home Chicago Cubs.
“Baseball doesn’t need to be fixed!” I decry whenever commissioner Rob Manfred announces a new rule change, or potential rule change, to MLB that I find utterly unnecessary or even damaging. Of course, that mantra fades away pretty quickly every time someone on Twitter tags me with video of yet another egregiously missed ball/strike call from a home plate umpire.…...
The Colorado Rockies farm system is not strong enough. What strength there is lies primarily in the lower levels and is, therefore, several years from MLB. The big league club has been stupendous at home but so terrible on the road that it all amounts to a club well under .500 that is now claiming intentions to try to compete…...
Connor Joe and C.J. Cron celebrated big home runs in the Colorado Rockies walk-off win over the San Diego Padres.
We react to the MLB Field of Dreams game and break down some Colorado Rockies prospects with broadcaster Drew Goodman.
We preview the Colorado Rockies vs. Houston Astros Game 2, then take a deep look at MLB’s upcoming Field of Dreams game and what it means for the baseball family.
For as long as human beings have known of its existence, we have had an obsession with gold. We set the gold standard, named the golden boy or the golden child because they’re “good as gold” or at least “worth their weight in gold.” We try to follow the golden rule, maybe using the golden compass, and who doesn’t love…...
The Colorado Rockies have given far more clarity about their plans for the future with tons of reasons to be skeptical. Drew Goodman helps us consider some details.
It was the worst of times. And then it was the best of times. In the tale of two Elias Diaz’ truer words were never spoken. Baseball is a vehicle for chaos. It is a game of slumps and streaks for every individual and every team. And yet still somehow, it is a game where everything tends to come back…...
The Colorado Rockies came about as close to a sweep as you can get without actually recording one against the Chicago Cubs. The first game saw the home team break out for one of their better offensive performances of the season, ultimately securing a 13-6 victory. Elias Diaz kept his hot streak going by blasting a second-inning grand slam to…
Elias Diaz and Sam Hilliard had monster nights at the plate and Kyle Freeland continued his excellent recent pitching in a Colorado Rockies 13-6 rout of the Chicago Cubs.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are the big winners at the 2021 MLB Trade Deadline. Probably. But what can we learn from such prognostications in years past?
At the plate, Raimel Tapia is who he has always been. Before he even arrived in the United States as a teenager, he was making a name for himself in the Dominican Republic thanks to his prodigious hand-eye coordination. And he did, as the saying, goes, “hit his way off the island.” Throughout his minor league career, he carved out…...
