When we look back on the Colorado Rockies’ 2022 season in a decade, what will be remembered most? Is there a chance we may not recall much of anything from the slate of 162 games we just witnessed? Any time a team fails to win the World Series – there are always 29 teams in this situation in a given…
Black is back for another year beyond 2022 and Drew Goodman of AT&T SportsNet breaks down why this is a big deal for the Rockies. Was it Colorado or Bud that didn’t want a longer extension? We also get into Commissioner Manfred’s morning press conference and figure out if it was filled with more good news or bad news. DON’T…
From Don Baylor to Bud Black, the Colorado Rockies history of managers isn’t especially long but it is pretty fascinating. Drew and Patrick take a deep-dive look at the men who’ve led the Rox.
Outside of the delayed start to the 1995 season, April 6 has been the latest any Colorado Rockies season has welcomed an Opening Day. With Clint Hurdle at the helm, the Rockies opened the 2009 season only a year removed from winning the National League Championship. While they would return to the playoffs by season’s end for the second time…
By Brian VanderBeek (Beat Writer covering the Modesto Nuts for the Modesto Bee) Bill Geivett moved his office into the Rockies clubhouse one year ago. MODESTO, Calif. – As I write this, there is no one looking over my shoulder, no one telling me my approach or emphasis is wrong. I’m free to write pretty much anything I want because…...
Jon Garland might be the odd man out if he doesn’t figure it out soon. Jim Tracy would have loved his post game press conference on Monday night if he was still with the Colorado Rockies. It was the perfect opportunity for him to use a classic cliche line that he seemed to pull out far too often in his…...
Walt Weiss becomes the Colorado Rockies 6th manager. In a long-awaited decision, the Colorado Rockies have chosen Walt Weiss as their next manager. The former American League Rookie of the Year has never managed, or coached in professional baseball. He served as a special assistant to the general manager for several years, but never in an official coaching role. Weiss…...
Following a franchise-worst 98 loss season, the Colorado Rockies are in desperate need for some grace from their fans. The issues go far beyond the amount of losses, the trust between the fans and the front office has been broken, something a professional sports franchise can ill afford to have happen. The confusion that comes from 20th & Blake is…...
Bill Geivett should be the Colorado Rockies next manager. The Colorado Rockies continue to spin in circles. Assistant General Manager Bill Geivett and General Manager Dan O’Dowd are in the process of interviewing for their open manager position after Jim Tracy let them know that he couldn’t handle the reins that they were putting on him. He passed up $1.4…...
It should have been a good day for Colorado Rockies fans. They got their wish. Jim Tracy is no longer the manager of the club. Instead, the move sheds light on just how deep this franchise’s issues are. Assistant General Manager Bill Geivett met with Tracy all day on Friday. The meeting was centered around the team’s desire to bring…...
Jim Tracy might be back in 2013, but it won’t matter. The only reason Colorado Rockies fans were still paying attention after a brutal 2012 season was because the word was out that Jim Tracy would hear the decision on his future in a Friday morning meeting. When morning turned to afternoon, then night, no word came from the Rockies.…...
Guillermo Moscoso was at-bat in the game’s most crucial moment. The Colorado Rockies have been writing the same story over and over again. With one night left in the season, there was no reason to change the script. The game ended on a walk-off 3-run homer off the bat of Aaron Hill, but the turning point came much earlier than…...
Chris Nelson had the game winning hit for the Rockies. It came down to the last series of the season, but the Colorado Rockies have avoided their first 100-loss season in franchise history. On Monday night, after the Rockies had battled back against Rookie of the Year candidate Wade Miley, Rafael Betancourt came in to finish off the Diamondbacks and…...
Time for changes in Colorado. What is more sad, the fact that the Colorado Rockies scored one run all season long, or the fact that it came as no surprise to those who have followed the team all season long? Perhaps the biggest punishment for a team that has been out of the race for months is having to play…...
He’s made mistakes, but he should have a full roster to use. Jim Tracy is a terrible manager. He changes the lineup almost daily, he makes excuses, and he handles a bullpen about as bad as anyone in the game. However, the Colorado Rockies front office is currently hanging him out to dry. In a season full of new phrases…...
The Rockies are finishing up their worst season ever. The Colorado Rockies have now lost as many games as they did in 1993 and 2005. With Friday night’s loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Rockies now have 95 losses with five games left to play. What that means for the team is that they still have a chance to…...
Dan O’Dowd is completely lost in his job. Wilin Rosario did it again on Tuesday night at Coors Field. The catcher went 2-for-4 in the Colorado Rockies rain-shortened win. One of the hits was a long home run to center field. The blast gave Rosario 27 on the season, giving him a realist shot at 30 before the season is…...
This team may not win again in 2012. Waiting for the end of the 2012 baseball season is similar to a kid waiting for Christmas. The fact is, it will eventually come, however, it just can’t come soon enough. The Rockies did it again on Sunday, losing to the Diamondbacks 10-7 in a slugfest that got ugly late, when the…...
This man is the wrong guy for the job. The same story has been written over and over again. The Colorado Rockies pulled their starting pitcher after four innings because his pitch count was above the limit. In spite of the fact that Jhoulys Chacin was rolling right along after his rough first inning meant nothing. As the story so…...
Pomeranz couldn’t find his location on Friday night. The Colorado Rockies seem to have their minds in a different place. The way they have been playing, they certainly can’t be thinking about playing baseball. On Friday night, in front of fans more eager to watch the post-game fireworks show than the terrible product on the field, the Rockies looked as…...
