Latest blog entries from Denver teams across every league
Colorado Rockies radio broadcast affiliate KOA announced this morning that Zach Goodman has been named to their open position in the booth. He will join longtime voice of the Rockies Jack Corrigan on Rockies radio broadcasts beginning Saturday, April 4th. KOA—owned by media conglomerate iHeartRadio—used spring training this year to audition multiple replacements for Jerry […]
The Colorado Avalanche will welcome the Vancouver Canucks to Ball Arena tonight for a Western Conference matchup. As the NHL regular season nears its end, Colorado’s magic number is six points (three wins) to win the Presidents’ Trophy, and the team is currently leading the race for last place in the league. The Avalanche are […]
The schedule has softened, the injuries have (mostly) resolved, and the Nuggets are finally handling inferior competition as the… The post Preview: Nuggets vie for a sweep in Salt Lake as seeding tightens appeared first on Denver Stiffs .
We are at the end of the first home stand. After the game the Jays will be on their way to Chicago for three games with the White Sox. This is a weekday afternoon game. And it is school day at the ballpark. I was there for a school day and they were handing out […]
Finishing out a road trip in which they are 1-4, the Colorado Rockies look to go out on a high note with a series win before kicking off their home opener on Friday. Unfortunately for them, they face a tough customer for the Toronto Blue Jays (4-1), as it will be a battle of the […]
They’ve talked about it for years now. The Colorado Rockies would enter spring training with the prerogative of stealing more bases in the regular season, especially after the implementation of bigger bases in 2023. Players would run free during Cactus League action, particularly the speedsters, in the hopes that it would carry over into the […]
I said it almost had to go better than yesterday, and it did. Max Scherzer was regularly getting it up to 95 tonight, which has to be a good sign. The offence wasn’t slugging but they notched 14 hits and four walks, and the bullpen kept things low stress. A nice bounce back all around. […]
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Rockies fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. The 2026 Rockies season is underway and the minor league seasons are just around the corner. The […]
Last night, with the series opener, the Colorado Rockies soundly defeated the Toronto Blue Jays in a 14-5 onslaught. In Game 2, the Rockies hit some bad luck and (again) couldn’t seem to get the offense working (again). Add to that a seventh inning that put the Rockies on the back foot. They ended up […]
When this goes up, we will be on day 8 of our Japanese adventure. I played tennis a week before we were leaving and a friend I was playing with asked if I was going stop playing since there was only a week until we leave and I wouldn’t want to hurt myself. I said […]
In Game 1, the Colorado Rockies (1-3) managed to absolutely bludgeon the American League Champion Toronto Blue Jays (3-1) in a 14-5 win that saw them facing a position player pitching before the evening had ended. Tonight, they will look to take the series from the Blue Jays. Something to watch: Colorado has not had […]
One of the spring training positional battles that Colorado Rockies fans watched took place at first base. Would recent trade T.J. Rumfield get the nod or Rockies top prospect Charlie Condon (No. 1 PuRP)? In the end, president of baseball operations Paul DePodesta went with Rumfield, sending Condon to Triple-A Albuquerque to continue his preparation. […]
It was unfortunate to see the Yankees’ perfect 3-0 record go by the wayside. Obviously that was never going to last, but it was almost more annoying to lose a close game, even when the opponent is a tough one in Seattle. Ryan Weathers didn’t go very deep, the bullpen was exposed a bit with […]
Yesterday, The Athletic published their yearly survey of MLB fandoms and where they are on the “Hope-o-meter.” (Gift link here.) The Colorado Rockies finished 27th, ahead of the Washington Nationals, Los Angeles Angels, and Minnesota Twins. Some 25.3% of fans said they felt “optimistic.” (Surprising no one, Los Angeles Dodgers fans are 99.7% optimistic.) Here’s […]
After a 4-2 loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday night, the Avalanche welcomed the Calgary Flames to town for the first of three regular-season matchups between these two teams. Colorado would come out on top tonight, as they completely put out the Flames by a final score of 9-2. The fun came at a […]
What a wild four games for the Colorado Rockies. They are swept by the Miami Marlins in the first three games, losing each game by only one run. Then, they are stranded in Maimi for an additional six hours: Recipe for disaster, right? Next they faced the American League Champion Toronto Blue Jays — a […]
Seventeen hits. Two homers. Six doubles. Fourteen runs. Seven-for-18 with runners in scoring position and three stolen bases. The Colorado Rockies got their first win of the 2026 with an exclamation point of a beatdown over the defending American League Champion Toronto Blue Jays in front of a sold-out Rogers Centre crowd on Monday night. […]
Friends, you’ve been so engaged that we had to put together an overflow thread! We’ll start doing that for game threads that reach 300+ comments (Sunday’s got a little unwieldy!). The Rockies just put up a seven-spot on the reigning AL champion Blue Jays after getting in around 2:30am. Also, it was the largest road […]
Nazem Kadri’s return to the Colorado Avalanche was so seamless, it feels like it happened forever ago, but really, it’s only been 24 days since Calgary dealt Naz back to his old club in exchange for Victor Olofsson, Max Curran, a 2028 2nd, and 2027 first. Just a few weeks later, Kadri will face his […]
The second series of the season. We should be in Hakodate, Japan, when this goes up. It will be Cherry Blossom time when we are there, which, I’m told is a very busy tourist time. I remember a line in a book by Warren Cromartie who went over there to play ball after his playing […]
After being swept by the Marlins in opening weekend, the Rockies will see if going to Canada will help them find their first win of the 2026 season as they take on the Toronto Blue Jays tonight. It won’t be easy for the Rockies (0-3) as the Blue Jays (3-0) are not only the defending […]
After new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan traded wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos in exchange for 2026 NFL Draft picks, plenty of folks around the league wondered if running back De’Von Achane would be the next Miami Dolphins player to be sent packing in an effort to strengthen Miami’s war-chest of draft selections […]
On the one-year anniversary of his iconic overtime goal against UConn, Penn State forward Matt DiMarsico signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Colorado Avalanche on Monday: DiMarsico scored a team-high 18 goals this season and finished his career as the 10th player in program history to reach 100 career points (42 goals, 58 assists). […]
As the Colorado Rockies MLB and Triple-A teams move into action, rosters are becoming available for the rest of the organizations farm system. Triple-A Albuquerque The Albuquerque Isotopes will field the following roster to start the season: For the Isotopes, the name of the game is tested depth. Very few players on this roster are […]
It’s hard to be a good team without being a good clutch team. Of the 12 teams currently in a playoff spot (plus Philly, who’s on the cusp of it), 10 of them are in the top 11 in clutch net rating (the other team is Milwaukee, somehow). The others are Minnesota (15th), Denver (20th), […]
