It has been the moveable object vs. the resistible force as the Road Colorado Rockies take on the Home Chicago Cubs.
The Colorado Rockies came about as close to a sweep as you can get without actually recording one against the Chicago Cubs. The first game saw the home team break out for one of their better offensive performances of the season, ultimately securing a 13-6 victory. Elias Diaz kept his hot streak going by blasting a second-inning grand slam to…
German Marquez and Jon Gray keep inching closer to Ubaldo Jimenez and Jorge de la Rosa. We examine what sets the best Colorado Rockies pitchers in history apart.
The Colorado Rockies entered the week having not yet won a game on the road and exited it with a pair of wins. The rest of the time, they continued to look overmatched and outclassed while playing away from their friendly confines. A young and inexperienced team continued to look young and inexperienced and other than a few standout individual…...
The Colorado Rockies took two of three from the Philadelphia Phillies, nearly sweeping the series if not for one very bad moment from the bullpen. They’ve now won four of their last five after sweeping the Astros and overall simply played a far more competitive brand of baseball across the eight-game home stand. The starting pitching has been good-to-great now…...

Welcome to our new series, What to Watch For.

The Colorado #Rockies are off to a tough start. Drew Goodman joins us to share some insight and remember some rough times he spent covering the Denver Nuggets. Plus, Ryan McMahon’s blistering start!
After an incredibly frustrating extra-inning loss in the series opener against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Colorado Rockies absolutely dominated the visitors in the second game. Behind a phenomenal performance from their starting pitcher and more offense from the non-stars of the team, the home club emerged with easily their most dominant and complete win of the season. Player of the…...
The Colorado Rockies dropped three of four games to the Los Angeles Dodgers and the starting pitching has been shaky. But are we seeing the start of some breakout seasons?
While the Dodgers prepared for a bullpen day, the Rockies were caught off guard in a 15-6 drubbing at the hands of the neighborhood bully. Ryan Castellani hoped to earn his first win at home and improve upon a no decision against Los Angeles on September 6 at Chavez Ravine. The 1-2-3 first inning appeared promising until his five-pitch walk…
Coming into 2020, Antonio Senzatela was the most pivotal pitcher for the franchise if the Colorado Rockies were going to contend for a place in the postseason. While the rest of the club has had varying success to the tune of 18-23 in starts by the remainder of the rotation, Senzatela has delivered on that make-or-break season. The 25-year-old grew…
It’s been a flashback to 2018 at Coors Field this weekend. A historic walk-off grand slam by Charlie Blackmon on Friday night. Extra-inning shenanigans on Saturday night. And Kyle Freeland continued his return to form and make believers out of the doubters. However, you know it’s 2020 by the final score: Angels 5, Rockies 2. The game reached its apex…
With their season hanging in the balance, the Colorado Rockies traversed an entire mountain range – ascent, descent and back to its peak – to win 8-4 against the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night thanks to a walk-off grand slam by Charlie Blackmon. After solo home runs by Jared Walsh and Anthony Bemboom in consecutive innings against the bullpen’s…
We are all experiencing a bit of 20-20 vision here in 2020 as the Colorado Rockies came into this series against the San Diego Padres at 20-20 with 20 games to play. If you’ve long been a doubter of this team, your skepticism has been proven out in numerous stretches of ugly baseball. If you’ve long been a believer in…...
Any time the score is 10-3 in pitcher’s park before your team can record it’s fourth out, it’s more than likely your club will be saddled with a loss. Tuesday’s 14-5 win gives the San Diego Padres two consecutive to start the series and four-straight against Colorado overall, not to mention making the National League’s second-best team appear poised for…
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 ingredients were procured and the recipe was finally prepared to the chef’s preference. Great starting pitching, solid defense, clutch hitting from the star and a competent/competitive bullpen. Together, it made for a 5-2 victory for the Rockies over the Dodgers, only the second in Southern California in their last 19 contests. The crux of matchup came in the top…
It began to feel like the Rockies were never going to beat the Dodgers ever again. Not in 2020 and maybe never again. Then, Kevin Pillar mashed a two-out grand slam in the top of the eighth to flip the lead and gave Colorado a 6-5 advantage. Mere minutes later, the realities of the final six outs began to soften…
The Colorado Rockies were down 6-1. They lost the day before 23-5. Kyle Freeland, the heart and soul of the team, could only muster two innings and gave up four runs in his second consecutive lackluster outing. They looked lost and listless. They looked ready to lose their third straight in non-competitive fashion. They looked to be stuck in a…...
