Rate Opinion: Pickoff Moves

Original at 6-4-2 (Blogspot) external link    Sat, Sep 13

By Rob(noreply@blogger.com) That's not happening for them this year; their luck on fifth starters ended, their run on health ended (Troy Tulowitzki, Todd Helton, and Matt Holliday have all spent substantial time on the DL), a lot of the things that went right for the team didn't break for them this year. Their young rot...

Rate First half in review: What’s wrong with the Rockies?

Original at Up in the Rockies external link    Fri, Aug 1

By Tom Stephenson No Rockies games for three days. Well, we can support Aaron Cook and Matt Holliday in the All-Star Game, but other than that, the Rockies have three days off. And it’s probably a good thing after a first half in which almost everything that could go wrong went wrong. The team started [...]

By Jim McLennan I think we all know who Player A is, so let's move on, shall we?

By Jim McLennan One good thing: attendance continues to impress. Obviously, the tenth-anniversary celebrations and some cool giveaways likely helped lure more people to the ballpark. But compared to the equivalent second home series in 2007 [which was also over the weekend against the Rockies], crow...

Rate Opinion: Diamondbacks 4, Rockies 12 - Not that it matters...

Original at AZ Snakepit external link    Sat, Mar 29

By Jim McLennan Last night's game was...what it was. Davis got hammered, but his mere presence on the mound was an achievement in itself; the middle-relief was excellent (4.1 innings of one-hit ball); our C-list pitchers got roughed up by the Rockies' C-list hitters. They used 28 players, we used 27. The offici...

Rate Opinion: Diamondbacks 10, Rockies 9 - Back to the Future?

Original at AZ Snakepit external link    Tue, Mar 11

By Jim McLennan Arizona scored three times in the sixth, including a solo homer by Chris Burke [another two hits today, to bring him up to .400 on the season], but Fruto couldn't hold the 7-6 lead and the Rockies plated two on three hits to retake the lead once more. Things loooked bleak for the Diamondbacks as...

By Tom Stephenson There just really isn’t a lot going on with the Rockies. There really hasn’t been much going on at all since the end of the World Series. Well, we signed Mark Redman and Kip Wells. Hopefully, they’re just insurance and aren’t going to be taking rotation spots away from guys like Franklin [...]

By Drew Bienhoff There are a lot of fans that are going to look at the 2007 season, see that National League champions banner fluttering in the breeze above left field at Coors Field, and decide that anything less than a repeat World Series appearance will be a disappointment.  I suppose that is a legitimate...

Original at Faith and Fear in Flushing external link    Sun, Oct 28

By Greg Yet I envy the Rockies. They've made it this far. They'll probably be dismissed as hopeless lightweights when (when, not if) they lose this World Series, but I hope their fans have enjoyed the unanticipated ride. No, they're likely not enjoying much right now, as evidenced by Fox's continua...

By Jeff Kallman Neither he nor the Rockies would have reason or desire to backtrack from that. If you’re the Colorado Rockies, you couldn’t do it with any better exclamation point than bagging your single most public underminer for the Monday night out that means game, set, 21 wins in your previous 22 game...

By Jim McLennan That said, here's a somewhat staggering fact for you.

Original at AZ Snakepit external link    Sat, Oct 13

By Jim McLennan Other factors come to play, of course, not least the offensiveness of our offense. You will probably not do well in the playoffs, when you can score only three runs in 20 innings - though again, we hit for more bases than the Rockies. Both pitching staff have been phenomenal, but we actually ha...

By Jim McLennan Ouch. That was not the National League Championship Series I signed up for.

Whenever that series starts, please let me know - because it clearly w...

It just wasn’t supposed to end this way, and I’m not saying...
