I have a bunch of random thoughts flowing through my head and not sure each one deserves its own post. So here are a few things related to baseball and the Rockies….I am not sure how I can express how badly I cannot wait for April to arrive. Spring officially starts tomorrow and my family …

I’m sold: start Arenado on Opening Day
Nolan Arenado has come out swinging in Spring Training, literally, he hasn’t taken a walk yet but he does have three bombs. For a kid who had a down year and some questioned his mental preparedness he has come out swinging to start Spring Training in an effort to get a strong look and make …

Springtime Baseball Latitudes and a Cosmic WBC
As major league teams (and we BSB writers) finally emerge from off-season hibernation, a entire month of spring training games in those two sanguine states of Arizona and Florida offer baseball fans a sneak preview of future prospects, flashes of brilliance from replacement players doing their best to earn a roster spot, and brief glimpses …

3 Up 3 Down: Catching up with a (not so) wild offseason
The offseason is officially over (and Bronco mania has subsided), which means that we can begin to look forward to 2013 and grasp for reasons to believe it will be better than the disaster of 2012 – the eternal optimism of spring training.

Rockies player goals for 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. …

Todd Helton…c’mon man!
What was Clint “Deer Meat” Barmes hiding from the rest of us? Is there a drinking problem within the Helton household? Apparently driving 4×4′s under the influence of alcohol – allegedly – isn’t the only thing Todd Helton drives when inebriated. Unfortunately. Helton has been the face of the Colorado Rockies since the late 1990′s. …

Which Rockies are ownable in fantasy?
I don’t know about you, but I am starting to get that “kid on Christmas Eve” feeling. It is getting sooo close to pitchers and catchers reporting that the anticipation is building. Along with the awesomeness of baseball returning this also means fantasy baseball is right around the corner. So which Rockies players are ownable …

Initial prospect rankings do not paint a pretty Rockies picture
It is that time of year: the snow is falling in Denver (occasionally, at best), temperatures are freezing in the morning, all the talk is about some game this weekend that will last five hours with about 11 minutes of actual action, a game in which more interest is around the commercials than the teams, …

Can the Rockies be better in 2013 without making any roster changes?
Whoa! What is this?! A post on Blake Street Bulletin. Say it ain’t so! And one from Travis?? Does he even still blog about baseball? The fever is starting to catch. I want baseball. Last season was so abysmal I just needed some time off from writing about the Rockies. Apparently about four months of …
