Rockies no longer writing off the season?

POSTED July 25, 11:04 AM

Is Matt staying put, after all?

I found an interesting article on FoxSports.com this morning. It suggests that if the Rox stay hot during their upcoming road trip (3 games at Cincinnati, 3 at Pittsburgh and 4 at Florida), they may switch from sell to buy mode.

Yep, thanks to their recent 6-1 homestand, the Rockies are back in contention in the NL West. They may be 13 games under .500, but the Rox are just 6 games out of first place. So if they can keep up the good work during this lengthy stretch on the road (easier said than done for a team that’s gone 14-36 away from Coors Field), then they may be in a position to add some talent, rather than dump it.

Check out the article here. And keep hope alive, Rockies fans!

Finally off the schneid

POSTED May 18, 6:39 PM

A quick shout out to Jeff Francis, who today, after nine starts, 53 innings and four losses, got his first W of the 2008 season (6-2 over the Twins). It was his first regular-season win since September 23, 2007, so I'm guessing he'll be celebrating.... Read More

What to make of the Rockies?

POSTED May 9, 6:52 PM

The boys of Rocktober certainly don't look like the team that won 21 of 22 games to get to the World Series last year. But the roster is basically the same. So what gives? I'd say that they're not as bad as their 2008 record suggests, though they're... Read More
