Ex-Rockies pitchers

Ubaldo hasn't pitched any better since leaving Colorado

As I am watching the Cubs @ Diamondbacks game on MLBN I see on the scroll that Franklin Morales made another start for the Red Sox today and his stat line looked pretty sharp. I also saw Brian Fuentes pitching to Melky Cabrera on my CBS Fantasy stats page and I got to wondering how …

Rockies designate Jamie Moyer and other Rockies thoughts

Rockies ditched Moyer today

Today the Rockies did what was inevitable: designate Jamie Moyer for assignment. This means that Moyer’s time with the Rockies is over. A team could claim him on waivers, if they so choose, and work a trade with the Rockies. If no one claims him he could go to AAA or opt to “retire”. Again. …

Rockies pitching is bad

Lots of high-5's for the Braves offense this weekend

Duh. The title of this piece isn’t exactly ground breaking news: the Rockies pitching is atrocious. How bad is it? Who would most fans say are the Rockies best pitchers, right now? Or at least who has been the best year to date? I would venture to say that many fans would say Jamie Moyer …

Rockies leaders after month #1

This young man was the Rockies best starter in April

The first month of the baseball season is already past us. The Rockies are 4.5 games behind the Los Angeles Dodgers for first place in the National League West and the team’s first month was average (11-11 record) mostly due to very average (to below average) pitching. All too often the starting pitcher leaves the …

Do the beat writers, radio and TV guys watch the Rockies?

New York Mets v Colorado Rockies

What do bloggers have over the guys who are paid to write or talk about the Rockies? They can be critical. Bloggers aren’t paid by the club and therefore don’t have to be as nice. Even the beat writers for the Denver Post can’t be fully critical of the team because the team could get …

scutaro

The Rockies had a .500 road trip to Milwaukee and Pittsburgh this week, and the success was largely a result of dominant pitching and timely hitting.  Here are three questions that came up during the week: How do you evaluate Marco Scutaro’s performance so far?

3 Up – 3 Down: Pacheco, Pomeranz and Moyer

pacheco

The Rockies made some personnel moves this week including optioning Jordan Pacheco to AAA to make room for the inauspicious debut of Drew Pomeranz.  And in case you didn’t hear, Jamie Moyer became the oldest pitcher to ever win a major league baseball game.  Here are three questions that came up during the week: Was …

The Rockies pitching; worse than we thought

A site seen too early in recent Rockies games

Going into the season most people were worried about the Rockies pitching. Those with half a brain new that Jeremy Guthrie was not an “ace”, not in the true sense of the word. Guys like Dan O’Dowd, George Frazier, Jeff Huson and anyone else who looks solely at wins, losses and ERA for a pitcher …

What we know and what we don’t know

Appreciate what you have and appreciate you get to watch Nicasio pitch after the scary incident last year

The internet is delightful. In fact it is how I watch my beloved Rockies from out of state. The internet is also prone to making us react more quickly and more rashly than we would otherwise. We are all guilty of this. If a baseball fan was to gauge how a team was doing based …
