The Mile High City is abuzz on Saturday. The Denver Nuggets kick off their first round playoff series against the Timberwolves at Ball Arena. Over at Mile High Stadium, 70,000+ tickets have been sold to welcome Lionel Messi to town, as the Colorado Rapids take on Inter Miami for a 30th anniversary celebration. Back at […]
The Rockies love versatility. They collect it. They prioritize it. They build around it — players who can move, adjust, and fill gaps across the roster. Under the current front office, that emphasis has been explicit. In theory, it works. But, like any philosophy, it only works if you know when to stop applying it. Tyler Freeman might be that moment. […]
Snow flurries rolled through Coors Field earlier in the day, but once the game began, it was the Los Angeles Dodgers who brought the heat as they defeated the Colorado Rockies 7-1. First pitch pressure Shohei Ohtani set the tone immediately with a leadoff double, and from there, the Dodgers settled into a rhythm that never really […]
The Colorado Rockies (7–12) return home after a rough 1–6 road trip, salvaging the finale in Houston with a gutty, arguably career-best outing from Chase Dollander (5.1 IP, 0 R, 9 K). They now return to Coors Field after stops in San Diego and Houston — only to be greeted by a much different environment. Frigid temperatures are expected at first pitch after snow moved […]
While there were several surprises on the Opening Day roster for the Rockies in 2026, the biggest — and most disappointing in my opinion — was Tanner Gordon being optioned to Triple-A on March 17. Even though Gordon’s numbers weren’t amazing on the surface in 2025, when he posted an ERA of 6.33 in 15 […]
The Colorado Rockies entered their series finale in Houston against the Astros needing a win in the worst way. Losers of six straight on the road, the Rockies could have ended their road trip with seven consecutive losses with a daunting match-up against the Los Angeles Dodgers quickly approaching. The Rockies got the memo. Despite […]
The Colorado Rockies are riding a season-high six-game losing streak as they prepare for their series finale against the Houston Astros. Despite woes from multiple sources—starting pitching deficiencies, injuries, and a sputtering offense—the games have been close. The Rockies could use a win tonight, not only to snap their losing streak but also because of […]
After having spent years experimenting in limited capacities and controlled environments, MLB officially rolled out the Automated Ball-Strike Challenge System for the 2026 season. The allure of analyzing the entirely new type of data that ABS challenges present has been hard to resist. To be able to draw any useful conclusions, though, we all collectively […]
It was a rough night at the plate for the Colorado Rockies as they failed to get their offense rolling once again as the Astros took home a 3-1 victory to win the series and hand the Rockies their sixth-straight loss. Not Around Long Enough Things did not get off to a good start for […]
It’s been a tough road trip for the Colorado Rockies as they are the losers of five straight games and dropped another close affair 7-6 on Tuesday against the Houston Astros. The offense came to life a little bit better, but it wasn’t enough to overcome a bad start on the mound, and the Rockies […]
After running a list of the Colorado Rockies 2026 walk-up songs, we thought it might be helpful to do this for teams in the Rockies farm system as well. So, without further ado, here the jams for the 2026 Albuquerque Isotopes. Adael Amador — Eladio Carrión y Myke Tower’s Vetements (1:55) Drew Avans — Fleetwood […]
It’s easy to panic early in the regular season. As the sample size of plate appearances continues to grow and success isn’t consistent, the temptation to pull the rip cord on certain young players grows ever more tempting. However, there is a difference between a player floundering and a player who just isn’t catching the […]
The Colorado Rockies rolled into Daikin Park hoping to end a four-game losing streak by winning their fourth consecutive game against the Houston Astros in two weeks. While they chipped away at an Astros lead amassed in the third inning, the Rockies could never quite get there, losing the series opener 7-6. Innings 1-3: The […]
That four-game sweep in San Diego last week? Whatever. It was a lifetime ago. It’s a new day and a new series, this time with the Houston Astros, a team the Colorado Rockies swept last week that has now lost eight in a row. To be fair, the Astros have be devastated by injuries. Taking […]
The Colorado Rockies optioned right-handed long reliever Valente Bellozo to the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes on Monday. However, a corresponding roster move was not announced until Tuesday afternoon as right-handed pitcher Tanner Gordon has been recalled from the Isotopes. Bellozo, pitched 4.1 innings of relief on Sunday against the San Diego Padres when anticipated starter Kyle […]
Colorado Rockies top prospect Ethan Holliday (No. 2 PuRP) has started his first full season of professional baseball with the Low-A Fresno Grizzlies. Currently, the 19-year-old short stop is slashing .200/.360/.560 in 20 at-bats. Granted, it’s early in the season, and we don’t yet have meaningful data. This comes off a 2025 season where after […]
Back on November 5, 2025, when the Colorado Rockies claimed INF/OF Troy Johnston off waivers, the move seemed fairly insignificant. At the time, the Rockies rebuild was in its early stages with key front office positions remaining unfilled, so their thinking on claiming Johnston was unclear. In spring training, however, Johnston’s potential became clear: It’s […]
Congratulations! You’ve won a (completely fictional) 15-minute coffee break with Colorado Rockies president of baseball operations Paul DePodesta. After you’ve ordered whatever it is you’re drinking, you sit down, and DePodesta asks you for some advice as the Rockies head into the fourth week of this young MLB season. What would you tell him? Please […]
After the hype of sweeping the Houston Astros and the crushing reality of being swept by the San Diego Padres in a four-game series, last week was a roller coaster for Colorado Rockies fans. While progress will be slow in the climb to change the trajectory of an organization that’s lost more than 100 games […]
Antonio Senzatela and Chase Dollander are two very different pitchers, but both have found themselves transitioning from starting to long relief over the last year. For Senzatela, the move came after struggles over the last few seasons that saw him returning from a variety of health challenges, including Tommy John surgery. Finally in August, the […]
The Colorado Rockies have had the most up-and-down season so far. They were swept on the road by the Miami Marlins; they then took two of three from the Toronto Blue Jays; they took one of three against the Philadelphia Phillies in the Home Opening series; swept the Houston Astros at home; and then were […]
It’s hard to describe this game as anything other than… deflating. While the Rockies entered the day on the verge of being swept, they had also kept the Padres on their toes for three games coming off of a sweep of the Houston Astros at home. Today is where nothing really went right for the […]
While it’s disappointing to once again be facing a sweep at the end of a series, one must remember the Colorado Rockies are who we thought they were. They are a team at the ground floor of a rebuild and by their own admission are “here for the climb.” By that metric, the Rockies have […]
When the Colorado Rockies left Coors Field on Wednesday night they were on top of the world. They had started the week having avoided a sweep at the hands of the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday and proceeded to rattle off three more wins to sweep the usually dominant Houston Astros. It was the Rockies’ first […]
On a day when the University of Denver hockey team won their historic 11th National Championship, it felt like nothing could go wrong in the Colorado sports world. Alas, there was no more Mile High Magic to go around for the Colorado Rockies (or Colorado Avalanche) tonight. Things got off to a promising start. Ryan […]
