Chris who?! Some WAR stats

3b

Take all of this for what it is worth – a real small sample size – but it is pretty apparent that the Rockies have a few studs and thankfully they finally made the switch at third base. All stats (pictures) come from Fangraphs.com. (Click on them to make them bigger) The first picture is …

How good is Dexter Fowler?

Dex

Dexter Fowler is good. I think that is a very safe statement, yet I am amazed at how many fans still would rather see Eric Young Jr. in the outfield than Dexter. Dexter Fowler is one of the best five best center fielders in all of baseball. *Look of bewilderment* I think even that statement …

Major League?

“Maybe these guys ain’t so fu**in’ bad.” That’s the thought running through my head, as well as the rest of the Rockies’ fans. When they started off 5-1, it was easy to dismiss considering they had played a mediocre team in Milwaukee and a much worse team in San Diego. After the Giants took the …

I’m looking at Game 1 as a positive

Dex trotting the bases after his game-tying HR late

I watched nine hours of straight baseball yesterday. It. Was. Awesome. It started early with the Yankees and Red Sox, two teams sure to fight for last place in the AL East, or so I can hope and finished with watching some of the Cardinals and Diamondbacks in bed before falling asleep around 8:30 or …

Some thoughts on the Rockies

I have a bunch of random thoughts flowing through my head and not sure each one deserves its own post. So here are a few things related to baseball and the Rockies….I am not sure how I can express how badly I cannot wait for April to arrive. Spring officially starts tomorrow and my family …

3 Up 3 Down: Catching up with a (not so) wild offseason

Dexter Fowler

The offseason is officially over (and Bronco mania has subsided), which means that we can begin to look forward to 2013 and grasp for reasons to believe it will be better than the disaster of 2012 – the eternal optimism of spring training. While other teams like the Indians and Royals made big moves to …

Rockies player goals for 2013

Can Fowler hit 20 triples and 20 homers in 2013?

Bored at work. I woke up way too early this morning (3:45) and it hit me like a ton of bricks about 8am. I was literally falling asleep at my desk. I decided to walk over to Wal-Mart and buy a Naked Juice in hopes that the walk and the cold would wake me up. …

Which Rockies are ownable in fantasy?

Pacheco's value ties directly to where he has eligibility

I don’t know about you, but I am starting to get that “kid on Christmas Eve” feeling. It is getting sooo close to pitchers and catchers reporting that the anticipation is building. Along with the awesomeness of baseball returning this also means fantasy baseball is right around the corner. So which Rockies players are ownable …

Can the Rockies be better in 2013 without making any roster changes?

If this guy is back and healthy for 160 games in '13 the Rockies will be better.

Whoa! What is this?! A post on Blake Street Bulletin. Say it ain’t so! And one from Travis?? Does he even still blog about baseball? The fever is starting to catch. I want baseball. Last season was so abysmal I just needed some time off from writing about the Rockies. Apparently about four months of …

Fantasy world: if the Rockies made the playoffs…

2007 was five years ago already.

With the new playoff format and the one game Wild Card game how would you fill out the Rockies lineup card? This is a fantasy land and the Rox made the playoffs AND are at home. You somehow got access to fill out the Rockies lineup…what does it look like? Assuming rest is OK and …
