Over the years, the Colorado Rockies, like every baseball team, have employed some questionable strategies. Even in the last two years as the team has soared to back to back postseason appearances, there have been heated debates about the makeup and use of the roster. Chief among these arguments have been whether or not the team is aggressive enough on…...
On this episode of the BSN Rockies Podcast, Drew Creasman breaks down another barnburner between the Brewers of Milwaukee and the Rockies of Colorado. We go almost pitch-by-pitch in looking at what went wrong for Adam Ottavino and Tom Murphy in the ninth, discuss Jon Gray’s fourth straight brilliant performance, and ask whether or not Trevor Story is already (or…...
DENVER – The average person loves, and needs, comfort and routine. Try to imagine leaving your home, as a teenager. Leaving your friends, your family, and your country to chase a dream you know won’t come true for at least four years and will do everything it can to crush you in the meantime, all while the odds stack more against…...
It’s no secret that the Colorado Rockies lineup has been hyper-dependent on their big bats this season to find victories. By wRC+, only Nolan Arenado, Charlie Blackmon, DJ LeMahieu and Trevor Story have been above average hitters, and naturally, have found themselves at the top of the lineup. As the Los Angeles Dodgers come into town looking to make up…...
On Wednesday night, Kyle Freeland recorded his sixth consecutive quality start, limiting the Los Angeles Dodgers to three runs in 6.2 innings, and although the Rockies would not provide enough offense to get him the win, he did his job and did it admirably. Again. Freeland has kept opponents below four runs in eight of his 10 starts so far…...
The lackluster Colorado Rockies offense nearly hit rock bottom on Tuesday. A team that has struggled all season watched (in an almost literal sense) former Rockie Jordan Lyles carry a perfect game into the eighth inning. For those living under a rock and are hearing this news for the first time, don’t worry, we were all as shocked as you…...
This wasn’t how it was supposed to go for Tom Murphy. The third-round-draft-pick-catcher dotted Rockies top prospects lists every year he was in the minors. After a full season adjusting to Double-A pitching in 2014, he broke through in 2015, advancing not only to the next level but the big leagues as well, just three years after being drafted. Murphy’s…...
Tony Wolters had a dreadful 2017 but multiple factors can both explain this and show a better path moving forward.
Colorado Rockies pitching prospect Yency Almonte is impressing all the right people this spring training as he vies for a higher spot on the depth chart or, if he keeps producing like he has and the right dominos fall, a spot in the team’s starting rotation. The 23-year-old right-hander made his third appearance of the preseason on March 5, taking…...
The Colorado Rockies have more options at late-inning reliever than they ever have before.
This position preview is about the group that may have the most questions, struggle the most and was largely not good last season. Welcome to the Rockies catchers.
With longtime star Carlos Gonzalez now gone, now what? Will the Rockies go all youth or all veteran or will it be somewhere between? Is either really a better option? Does no clear answer mean there is a problem?
As we continue our breakdown of the 2018 Rockies position by position, today we look at perhaps the most polarizing two spots on the roster: middle infield. With incumbents Trevor Story and DJ LeMahieu returning to starting roles at shortstop and second base, respectively, double-play turns will look similar this season. The tandem will undoubtedly be a source of rational…...
The Colorado Rockies have a plethora of promising options the provide a boost of the bench.
In what might be the strongest position for the Rockies top to bottom the present and the future of the position for the organization are both currently on the roster.
Don't forget the important role that Pat Valaika plays for the Colorado Rockies.
The Colorado Rockies offense is a conundrum and I'm not sure anyone can convince you they're good or bad if you believe the opposite.
For the first time in the Colorado Rockies' 25-year existence, the team will honor the rich history of baseball in Denver that existed long before the Rockies threw their first pitch.
