By Poseidon's Fist The heater in the dugout was not enough to chase away the numbness in Ubaldo Jimenez' fingers, Brad Hawpe's hamstring flared up in the cold, Todd Helton was "miserable", and Garrett Atkins faced Ted Lilly without feeling in his right hand.  The Rockies were wretchedly cold.

By Silverblood Offensively, it was another underwhelming day for the Rockies' bats, as they collected 10 hits but weren't very efficient at turning them into runs. Matt Murton, Paul "Who Da Hell?"

By Rox Girl It's fairly common to read about crooks wearing Yankees or Dodgers regalia while perpetrating their crimes.

By Rox Girl So the direction my NL West preview posts have been taking me leads me to believe that a good part of the Rockies fate in 2009 lies largely in four left arms, namely those of starters Jeff Francis, Jorge De La Rosa, Greg Smith and Franklin Morales and how well they are able to fill three slots in...

In the Diamondbacks 30 win against the Colorado Rockies, Randy Johnson was at his overpowering best for six innings.

Todd Helton drove in the 1,000th RBI of his career, and Brad Hawpe chipped in with a gamebreaking, tworun double to lead the Colorado Rockies to a 63 win over the Diamondbacks on Friday night at Chase Field.

Jeff Francis allowed two runs in 6 2/3 innings, Willy Taveras and Kaz Matsui each scored runs thanks to their speed, and the Rockies beat Los Angeles 63 on Monday to snap the Dodgers fourgame winning streak and spoil their home opener.

The Rockies took advantage of a disputed error and scored three times in the first inning to quickly seized control of the game in an 114 victory at Coors Field on Wednesday afternoon.

The Rockies benefited from two close plays in handing the Diamondbacks a 43 loss in 11 innings at Coors Field.
