It turns out that Yogi Berra was right all along: “Baseball is 90 percent mental. The other half is physical.”

The Rockies were beaten down. At 8-28, they were the worst team in baseball. Their confidence was down and the mental mistakes were up. Then came the breakout game. On May 9, the Rockies stomped the Giants 9-1 and awoke from the downtrodden depression that was the 2024...

Colorado Rockies news and links for Thursday, May 16, 2024

Last week, I wrote about the dismal starts to the season for the major league and Triple-A levels of the Colorado Rockies organization. Entering that publication, the teams were 18-53 with a negative-184 run differential. Since then, the Isotopes have been stable (get it?), relatively speaking, with a 3-3 record although they’re still handing out runs faster than a salesman distributes...

The Rockies will look to take the series tonight against the Padres, but first, they’ll face one of MLB’s best pitchers.

After a wild Monday night opener that involved the Colorado Rockies (13-28) walking 11 batters but still beating the San Diego Padres 5-4, the Rockies will look to take their winning streak to six games. (The Rockies have not won more than five straight since an eight-game winning streak May 26-June 2, 2019.)
