For many on the Front Range, Thursday was supposed to represent not only the rebirth of a new season, but the dawning of a new decade in Colorado Rockies history. Instead of the eternal hope that springs forth on Opening Day, society has screeched to a halt all across the country with merely the hope for survival taking precedence over…

Last week, we reminded ourselves how extremely volatile bullpens can be in general and noted that for the Colorado Rockies, this is doubly so. Also this wide window of possibilities, from the best to the worst case scenarios, seems to represent a wide range of possible outcomes for the club in the upcoming 2020 season. This isn’t just the situation…...

On Friday, it was reported by multiple sources that the Colorado Rockies have agreed to terms, avoiding arbitration, with four players: pitchers Jon Gray, Kyle Freeland, and Carlos Estevez as well as outfielder David Dahl. In each case, Colorado got favorable deals just underneath where most evaluators had predicted. The reported $5.6 million for Gray is an excellent value for…

DENVER – In order for a resurgent rebound in 2020, the Colorado Rockies should – under no circumstances – rely solely upon internal improvement. While they must be aggressive in the offseason, searching the world over for anyone and everyone who might be able to help them fill out the roster in a way that doesn’t let down the talent…...

After a promising four-game winning streak from August 14-18 coming mostly against the National League’s worst club, Colorado has been on the road where they’ve lost six of seven, including a four-game sweep courtesy of the NL Central-leading St. Louis Cardinals.  Sitting at 58-73 on the season, the Rockies have the third-worst record in the Senior Circuit and the…...

DENVER – On a day closer Wade Davis was relieved of his ninth-inning duties, it was the removal of David Dahl that came as the biggest surprise Friday night when the 25-year-old was carted off the field with a right ankle sprain. Colorado won 5-4 on Friday night, but it was the health of Dahl serving as the memorable moment.…...

Los Angeles was poised to come out attacking after Monday night’s 9-1 drubbing at the hands of Colorado; their target on Tuesday night was LHP Kyle Freeland. Making his fourth start since a demotion to Triple-A, Freeland started the game in a downpour, his third such issue with Mother Nature following rain delays of three hours on July 13 and…...

For the second straight contest against the Cincinnati Reds, the Colorado Rockies were unable to come up with the big hit with men on base, going 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position in a 3-2 loss.

On the 50th Anniversary of the first moon landing, the Colorado crew witnessed a blastoff that traveled much higher than the 14ers dotting their mountainous state. The on-field temperature felt like playing a game on the launch pad amid liftoff, 94 degrees at first pitch, but with 44% humidity it felt more like 105 degrees. Before the game, Bud Black…...

It wasn’t exactly the statement win the Colorado Rockies were looking for out of the break but they got more great signs out of the Wolf of Blake Street and just enough hitting to top the Cincinnati Reds in the first of three by a score of 3-2.
