**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 …

I have written previously here about what the future of the Rockies looks like and what needs to go well for the Rockies to compete. In an overall sense, the Rockies need their young pitching to become good. If Chacin, Nicasio, Pomeranz, White, Chatwood, Matzek, Friedrich, and Anderson do not develop then the Rockies franchise …
