Colorado Rockies lose 8-3 to the Tampa Bay Rays

The Rockies dropped to third place in the NL West after finishing their home stand a disappointing 2-4 and following that up by losing 2 of 3 in St. Louis.  The pitching struggles came from unexpected sources with Matt Belisle, Jhoulys Chacin, and Rafael Betancourt all recording losses.  Despite Nolan Arenado’s arrival and Todd Helton’s …

3 Up 3 Down: Enjoying the Moment

Tulo is back!

As of Friday morning, the Rockies are 6-0 at home, 11-4 overall, and in first place in the NL West. Let that sink in for a minute. Yes, the schedule has been weak. Yes, better opponents are on the horizon. Yes, O’Dowd is still GM. But that doesn’t mean you can’t look at the standings …

I’m looking at Game 1 as a positive

Dex trotting the bases after his game-tying HR late

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 …

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. …

For second year in a row Troy Tulowitzki is MLB Network’s top shortstop

Avoid those inside pitches this year, Tulo

Two year’s ago Troy Tulowitzki was the named the second best shortstop in baseball by MLB Network, and at the time I cried foul, but since then MLBN has wised up and named Tulo the best shortstop in baseball each of the last two seasons. Yesterday MLBN had their “Top 10 Right Now” series on …
