Drew Goodman joins us for the chatter coming out of Colorado Rockies Spring Training. The outside expectations may be low, but these players believe in themselves.

The Colorado Rockies began the final eight-game stretch of the season with one of their best-played games of 2020, securing a relatively comfortable 7-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park. Moment of the Game: Diaz Blows It Open In The 5th The game went from good to great for the Rockies offense when Elias Diaz hit a…...

The Colorado Rockies continue to play good baseball, but couldn’t come up with the win in a pitcher’s duel on Tuesday night. Kyle Freeland and Dinelson Lamet were equally brilliant, in polar opposite ways. The Padres starter used a nearly unhittable fastball/slider combination to overwhelm hitters all night. Freeland pitched his typical out-think-you type of game and neither man gave…...

The Colorado Rockies weren’t going to win every single series of 2020 and they finally dropped one on Wednesday afternoon to the Arizona Diamondbacks after a 13-7 loss at Coors Field. Moment of the Game: Kinley Comes Apart Colorado had the game all tied up at 5-5 heading into the seventh when righty reliever Tyler Kinley was called upon to…

The Colorado Rockies improved to 12-5 thanks to an 8-7 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks that basically played out as two different ballgames. The first one saw a pitcher’s duel between Kyle Freeland and Zac Gallen that ended up playing out to a 2-2, seven-inning dray. Then things got crazy. Gallen has never allowed more than three runs in a…...

On this episode of the DNVR Rockies Podcast, Drew Creasman and Patrick Lyons break down the sixth one-hitter in Colorado Rockies history. It’s impressive enough to see a pitching staff accomplish something like that but even more so considering it was the MLB debut of Ryan Castellani. Plus, Charlie Blackmon is still hotter than the surface of the sun.

The Colorado Rockies took the series 3-1 from the San Francisco Giants on Thursday afternoon, but it wasn’t easy. It looked for a moment like Mauricio Dubon had ruined a fantastic afternoon from Kyle Freeland and stolen a victory for the Giants when a three-run jack in the seventh suddenly put Colorado behind, 3-1. The Rockies responded with ferocity, plating…...

The Colorado Rockies washed the taste of an ugly loss in the home opener out of their mouths on Saturday night with a decisive and complete win over the San Diego Padres. The visiting starter Joey Lucchesi could not complete two innings as the Rockies offense remained patient, drove up pitch counts, and made solid contact in key moments. In…...

This is the type of game the Rockies won all the time in 2017 and 2018; it’s precisely the type they lost in 2019. There were some key differences is this defeat, but the similarities were blatant. Trevor Story nearly played the hero with a late home run but an implosion from closer Wade Davis wasted an otherwise quality game…

The Colorado Rockies were heavily criticized in the offseason (the first one) for making very few changes to the roster. Time will tell if their track will be the right one, but there is certainly an irony to the fact that a pair of newcomers helped power them to their first win of 2020. Matt Kemp, making his first start…...

For the second time this Spring the Colorado Rockies played a baseball game that ended in a tie. Taking on the Cincinnati Reds on an overcast afternoon at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale, Arizona, the two teams played to a standstill but there were plenty of fascinating tidbits inside of this 5-5 contest. Turning Point – Young Guns Fire Back…...

For the second consecutive Spring Training meeting, the Colorado Rockies got whomped by the Los Angeles Dodgers, this time by a score of 7-1. The results were undoubtedly ugly for the boys in purple but for reasons completely unrelated to where these two teams are at right now, that was to be expected. Turning Point – When the lineups came…...

A two-game sweep in one day but two different locations was on the table for most of the afternoon but a rough outing from the bullpen in Glendale for the Colorado Rockies against the Chicago White Sox sank that possibility. But the big story from a long term perspective was the return of Brendan Rodgers who was chomping at the…...

The Colorado Rockies put an old fashioned shellacking on the Kansas City Royals in one of two games they played on Saturday in split squad action. The 9-1 final score in favor of the purplers perfectly represents the game as Colorado dominated at the plate, on the mound, and in the field. Turning Point – 7-run Second Colorado put up…...

Some days, the goal is just getting through it. Colorado Rockies fans took one gigantic collective breath when starter Kyle Freeland took the mound in the third but did not throw a pitch, walking back to the dugout with his hand on his back. Fortunately, it was later reporter that the move was precautionary after a bit of tightness and…...

DENVER – With every chance to win their third straight series, the Colorado Rockies couldn’t get enough done on offense and saw a late collapse from the bullpen to drop the rubber match to the New York Mets by a score of 7-4. On paper, it looked like a mismatch for the starting pitchers between Jeff Hoffman and Noah Syndergaard.…...

DENVER – Since being mathematically eliminated from postseason contention, the Colorado Rockies have not lost a baseball game. They have now followed up their series win over the St. Louis Cardinals with a series sweep over the San Diego Padres, thanks to a complete team win on Sunday afternoon at Coors Field. Starter Chi Chi Gonzalez put in a workmanlike…...

The day began with another dose of terrible news for Rockies fans who still haven’t gotten numb to it despite a steady stream of such news all season long. Coming on the heels of losing Scott Oberg, by far their best reliever, for the remainder of the season and hot on the trail of the Kyle Freeland issue from…...

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.
