Another one bites the dust. First Jorge De La Rosa, then David Hale, now add Eddie Butler to the ever growing list of potential rotation members that will likely start the season on the disabled list. Butler was almost a lock to join the Rockies rotation right out of the gate before he informed the Rockies training staff about discomfort…...
The “If we stay healthy” narrative isn’t starting of so well for the Rockies. On Jorge De La Rosa: “Other than playing catch, he’s pretty much shut down,” Weiss said. Unlikely he’s ready for start of #Rockies season. — Nick Groke (@nickgroke) March 24, 2015 De La Rosa has been battling a groin injury all of Spring Training, and will…...
If it’s been said once, it’s been said a thousand times. If the Colorado Rockies can stay healthy, they have a chance to compete in the competitive National League West. The injury “if” is the biggest one, year-in and year-out for the Rockies. Everything hinges on the health of their superstars. The health of Troy Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez are…...
Rockies fans are hoping this will finally be the year the club can turn things around and be competitive past the all star break. Grantland released a NL Spring training preview yesterday, and didn’t exactly share the same optimism. Colorado Rockies: Y’all want a hug? I’m serious. I spent forever trying to give Rockies fans a reason to be optimistic other…...
The Colorado Rockies announced yesterday 24 non-roster players that will be in Scottsdale for Spring Training this year. #Rockies release their 24 non-roster invitees to Spring Training. Pitchers & Catchers report in 9 days! pic.twitter.com/JdTCqK8W2V — Colorado Rockies (@Rockies) February 10, 2015 A lot of no name players we’ll probably wont hear from again this year but there are a…...
Much of the hope for the Colorado Rockies immediate future rests on Eddie Butler’s right arm. On Saturday, Butler gave far more reason for excitement than he did in his lone big league start back in June. His six innings of one-run baseball was impressive, even if it came against the one team int he National League worse than the…...
Kyle Parker is one call-up worth watching for the Rockies. Admit it, the last two months of Colorado Rockies baseball is one big blur. With the exception of a few games, they all seem the same. Bad baseball, poor pitching, terrible management, and mounting losses have dominated this team. Yet, if you are reading this, you are probably still taking…...
Eddie Butler got knocked around, but showed promise in his debut. With his new team needing CPR, Eddie Butler was called in to be the lifeguard. The problem is, he hasn’t taken the certification tests yet. The Colorado Rockies got to see first-hand what Butler is all about. He throws three strong pitches, a sinking fastball, a changeup and a…...
It’s time to see what Tyler Matzek can do in the big leagues. Paging Jhoulys Chacin. Mr. Chacin, please pick up a white courtesy telephone. On Sunday, in what might go down as the worst road trip in Colorado Rockies history (and that is saying something), the Rockies supposed ace looked like the kid on your 11-year-old team who forgot…...
Juan Nicasio was terrible on Friday night. It was stared on most Colorado Rockies fans pocket schedule. This was the road trip that would define whether the hot start the team had in April and early May was for real, or if it was a fluke. The message sent to fans is clear. On Friday night, after a day off…...
Eddie Butler is one reason for Rockies fans to be excited. Hope springs eternal. Something about those words gives fans of the 29 teams that didn’t win the World Series a reason to be excited every February. Those are the words that Colorado Rockies fans have had to live by for a very long time. The Rockies are the epitome…...
