Cook’s career with the Rockies coming to a close

Aaron-Cook-Rockies

Finally, the Rockies have put us out of our misery by moving Aaron Cook to the bullpen.  It’s pretty much guaranteed that Cook is done in Colorado.  The Rox have an $11 million team option on Cook and only a team with brainsick management would be willing to pick that one up.  Cook had a …

Can you pull for the Diamondbacks in the playoffs?

Justin Upton, Mark Ellis

The MLB regular season is coming to a somewhat anti-climatic close.  Unless something truly crazy happens, there is only one playoff spot remaining up for grabs – AL West.  Aside from some geographical similarities, that one doesn’t have much to do with the Rockies.  Right now, baseball fans are mostly just waiting for the playoffs …

Is Tulo an MVP candidate?

Earlier this week, Jon Heyman of SI ranked his picks for MVP in the AL and NL.  Honestly, neither list made any sense whatsoever.  But, since we’re of the NL focus here, and the DH rule is an atrocity, I’m discussing the NL MVP race.  As a member of the BBWAA, Heyman has a vote.  …

Should the Rockies bring back Jim Tracy?

Jim+Tracy+Colorado+Rockies+v+Pittsburgh+Pirates+k7L8gp7BA15l

Right now, it seems like everyone has turned against Jim Tracy.  Our comments section has been full of Tracy hate lately, most of which I’m in agreement with.  The man has been making some very curious decisions all season and his inability to think outside the box is driving all of us crazy, at least …

Diamondbacks leave Rox green with envy

(AP Photo/Matt York)

The Arizona Diamondbacks enter tonight’s contest with a firm grasp on first place in the NL West.  They are seventeen games over .500 and hold a five game lead over the second place Giants – 12 over the Rockies.  You show me someone who claims that they expected this before the season and I’ll show …

The Rockies should’ve pulled the trigger on Rosario for Wandy

Rosario

Placing a waiver claim on Wandy Rodriguez was one of the smartest things Dan O’Dowd has done this season.  Granted, he hasn’t made a lot of smart moves, but acquiring Rodriguez in a waiver wire deal would’ve been a significant addition and I applaud my arch nemesis for exploring the possibilities.  Unfortunately, it was nothing …

Hey Jim, don’t let the door hit you on the way out

Jim Tracy, Ty Wigginton

Jim Tracy’s curious lineup choices have been subject to much scrutiny this year.  On this site, it’s been a particularly popular topic.  In fact, his inability to logically piece together a lineup has probably been discussed too much.  Nevertheless, I’m picking on sweet ole’ Jim once again and it’s because last night he may have …

Rockies’ outfield is an underrated asset

Florida Marlins v Colorado Rockies

Right now, the Rockies’ top three players in terms of WAR are Tulo, Chris Iannetta, and Todd Helton.  In all likelihood CarGo will pass both Helton and Iannetta by season’s end – he’s pretty close already – but none of the top four should come as a surprise.  It’s the fifth and sixth ranked guys …

Two rare outfield talents currently on display at Coors Field

Florida Marlins v Colorado Rockies

On Monday, the Rockies returned home only to find that the humidor had been destroyed.  Because the team is out of contention, management has decided to revert back to pre-2002 Coors Field.  At least, that’s what it seems like.  Over the last two nights, the Rockies and Marlins have combined for nine homeruns.  The Rox …

Why are the Rockies ignoring Iannetta’s breakout season?

Colorado Rockies v Arizona Diamondbacks

There has been quite a bit of talk about what the Rockies will do at the catcher position this off-season.  For whatever reason, the team seems like it might be ready to give up on Chris Iannetta.  A few weeks ago, Troy Renck speculated that the Rockies might want to trade Iannetta this off-season, leaving …
