Editor’s note. This was sent into our Supreme Master last week, but our Supreme Master was off vacationing in Maui! Why isn’t he watching every pitch of every Rockies Spring Training game? I asked the same question and all I got in return was some sort of Corona induced psycho babble. In any case, we …

The Rockies are not going to the make the playoffs. Breaking news at 10pm! For the past few weeks there have been many Rockies fans who wanted to see the team unload some players and hopefully get something in return. The problem is the Rockies don’t have anything that any other GM in his right …

Coming out of the All-Star break it is easy to forget that the Rockies returned to action this weekend. The team was 19 games under .500 and tied with the Chicago Cubs and Houston Astros with the fewest wins in baseball after the first half. Not a lot to root for. But maybe that wasn’t …

Recently I was perusing Todd Helton’s Baseball Reference page (because it’s always a party at my apartment) and I stumbled across a piece of information that’s mere existence made me want to break my laptop over my knee and punch the nearest member of the BBWAA in the face. The thing that made me so …

Over the next week or so I will preview the 2012 season for the Rockies position by position. There have been some fan favorites jettisoned from the team and some new faces (albeit longer in the tooth) who have jumped on board. Today we talk first base. Previous: Catcher Players lost: The two players who …

Too many “baseball” people think Moneyball and Athletics GM Billy Beane were all about on-base percentage and once everyone figured out what OBP was Beane and the A’s no longer had a leg up on the rest of baseball. Really, Moneyball and Beane and other smart General Managers around baseball are looking for market inefficiencies; …

Let me summarize the 2011 season for the Colorado Rockies: disappointing, horrendous, embarrassing, laughable and Troy Tulowitzki is by far the best shortstop in baseball.
