JC

The Rockies finished their snowy home stand with a tidy 6-3 mark capped by a thrilling extra inning win over the MLB leading Braves. Although the Rockies managed to hold on to first place in the NL West, the week was not without adversity: Jeff Francis continued his transformation into the baby-faced Jamie Moyer, Jon …

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 …

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 …

**This was written before Monday night’s game against the Giants. Some stats below might not be totally accurate. Is it just me or does it seem like the Rockies pitching has been a lot better over the past month or maybe even six weeks? It could just be recent memory since the team has allowed …

Reviewing a month of 75 pitches or fewer

francis-jeff

On June 19th Jim Tracy declared that the Rockies starting pitchers would only throw 75 pitches per start. At the time the Rockies had by far the worst ERA among starting pitchers in baseball so something had to be done…many were not sure this was what needed to be done. I personally think the Rockies …

Rockies first half awards

dex

I can’t believe baseball actually thought it was a good idea to have TWO off days after the All-Star Game. One, it ruins the trivia question “what day of the year has no games being played among the four major sports?” (it now has to ask which two days…) and two it just ruins my …

Juan Nicasio done for season…just keeps getting worse

This is an awful picture but it seems to represent the Rockies season so well

Juan Nicasio was in the midst of a throwing program and the team was beginning to formulate a time table for his return to the team…and then it was discovered he has fluid buildup in his knee and required surgery. He injured his knee about a month ago and didn’t need surgery, just rest, but …
