The first two weeks of the season have been representative of the ebb and flow of every baseball season. From the “Another Rocktober!” optimism of a 5-1 opening week to the “100 losses here we come” depression of a sweep in San Francisco, the Rockies have watched the pendulum swing both directions already. Only time …

…and SBC Park and Pac Bell Park. All we heard about the past few days as the Rockies had the realization of what to expect in 2013 come crashing down in McCovey’s Cove in San Francisco was how bad the Rockies play in San Francisco, in particular at AT&T Park. I got to wondering…is it …

On September 18, 2010, the Rockies, led by two Troy Tulowitzki home runs and eight shut-out innings by Jhoulys Chacin, beat the Dodgers 12-2 to move within a game of the first place San Diego Padres and a half game back of the Giants. Colorado was sitting on 82 wins with fourteen games left to …

Here are some of the pictures I took on Friday and Saturday. For Opening Day we didn’t get tickets to the game, but that wasn’t going to keep us from the party that is Opening Day in LoDo. Saturday I used my first press credential of the year, and, wow, they totally redid the press …

As of this morning, the Colorado Rockies are in first place. Just let that sink in for a minute. Feels nice, right? Things have gone exceedingly well so far in this young season. Naysayers, before you get fired up, let me just stop you here. I’m not declaring this team to be great by any …

Today marks the 20th year of Major League Baseball being played in Colorado. That’s a remarkable thing. I still remember visiting Colorado as a kid and getting all excited about the new baseball team with the cool colors and logo. Twenty years later, I never could have guessed how my relationship with this team would …

Spring is officially here: longer days, warmer nights, and the Rockies are still in contention! Yep, opening day is officially upon us and hope springs eternal (or so we are supposed to believe). The lingering disappointment from the 2012 season is still heavy in the mountain air, but 2013 is all about new beginnings (bonus …

Note – as of this writing, the Rockies had not started the game played on March 27. With three games left for the Rockies in spring training, just about the only thing we know for sure for the upcoming season is that the Rockies will, in fact, field a roster with 25 humans; none of …

Yesterday the Rockies singed Jon Garland to a Major League contract and the assumption is that he will take Drew Pomeranz’s spot in the rotation. Apparently the Rockies aren’t too keen on Pomeranz’s spring and feel he would be better served to continue to work on his mechanics in the minor leagues. He has spent …
