Chase Dollander and Antonio Senzatela are settling into the Rockies bullpen

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 […]

Purple Row After Dark: Impressive, surprising, concerning

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 […]

Padres 7, Rockies 2: Swept out of San Diego

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 […]

Colorado Rockies game no. 16 thread: Kyle Freeland vs Nick Pivetta

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 […]

Padres on four-game win streak, sights on series sweep

The San Diego Padres put an end to their recent walk-off shenanigans with a 9-5 come-from-behind victory over the Colorado Rockies Saturday night. Germán Márquez, after his last stellar start, reverted to his previous not-so-good form but still managed to pick up the win with some thump from the offense. Márquez allowed four runs on […]

This Week in Purple: Tonal Whiplash

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 […]

Padres 9, Rockies 5: An early spark gives way to a disappointing loss

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 […]

Colorado Rockies game no. 15 thread: Ryan Feltner vs. Germán Márquez

The Colorado Rockies will try to limit the damage after two straight walk-off losses to the San Diego Padres. In good news, the starting pitching has been stellar and both games have been competitive throughout. Thursday, Jimmy Herget opened with a 1-2-3 inning, paving the way for Chase Dollander to take a bulk of the […]

Rockies Reacts Results: Fans are happy with the rotation so far

On Wednesday, we asked you to grade the Rockies’ rotation through one start on the road and one start at home apiece (more or less). So far, fans have been impressed. 98% of responders believe the Rockies’ rotation is passing the test with a C or above. Only 2% of folks believe the rotation is […]

The Notes: Luzardo handles Beck, Jonathan Bowlan tweaks

Jesús Luzardo dazzled in the second game of the road trip against the Colorado Rockies, striking out 11 in 6.2 innings of one-run ball. It was a strong bounce back start after struggling against Texas to begin the year. There is one three-pitch sequence that can tell anyone how dialed in he was in Coors. […]

The Rockies’ offense needs a monster — and Charlie Condon might be it 

After five Triple-A games, Konnor Griffin forced the issue — .438/.571/.625 — and debuted in Pittsburgh’s April 4 home opener.  Less than a week later, the Pirates — hardly a perennial contender — announced a nine-year extension that keeps him under contract through 2034.   That’s not just a prospect promotion. That’s a team deciding to be aggressive.  For an organization […]

Holy Sheets! Gavin goes yard, twice, Padres walk-off Rockies

For the second tine in as many nights, and for the first time in the new City Connect 2.0 uniforms, the San Diego Padres walked off the Colorado Rockies at Petco Park. One night after Xander Bogaerts hit a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the 12th inning, Gavin Sheets hit his second home […]

Padres 5, Rockies 2: Late-night heartbreak all over again

The Colorado Rockies battled all night, grinding through tough at-bats before finally breaking through with two late runs — making the walk-off home run that followed all the more painful. Juan Mejia gets tagged with the loss and Mason Miller picked up the win for the Padres. Pitchers set the tone early  Tomoyuki Sugano and […]

Extra-inning heroics, Slam Diego, return to Petco Park

What. A. Game. The San Diego Padres had their first walk off of the year last night and, with it, this team is starting to look like itself once again. After failing to score more than one run—despite plenty of opportunities—San Diego entered the tenth inning against the Colorado Rockies with Jeremiah Estrada on the […]

Colorado Rockies add new minority owners Greg and Carrie Penner

This morning, the Colorado Rockies announced that Greg and Carrie Penner, owners of the Penner Sports Group, have become minority owners in the baseball franchise. Major League Baseball has approved the agreement. With this move, the Penner Sports Group — which also owns a stake in the Denver Broncos — will become the largest minority […]

‘Golden’ Sugano fitting in nicely in Colorado

Whether it was via free agency or through trade, Coors Field isn’t usually an ideal landing spot for veteran starting pitchers. There are success stories, of course, but even those usually come with few wins and a ballooned ERA. That’s why having three new veterans in the Rockies starting rotation this year was quite a […]

Bogey goes boom, Padres walk-off Rockies in extras

The San Diego Padres played their first extra-innings game of the 2026 season and the first under new manager Craig Stammen. It took 12 innings for the Padres to top the Colorado Rockies in their series opener at Petco Park on Thursday night, giving them and Stammen the win. The game was settled in the […]

Padres 7, Rockies 3: A late-night, hard-fought loss (F/12)

The Colorado Rockies fought and fought, pushing the San Diego Padres into extras. Unfortunately, they came out on the losing end of a crooked loss, but they showed some absolute heart. The loss snapped a four-game winning streak, and also marked the longest game (by innings) in 2026. Jimmy Herget opened with a clear inning […]

Colorado Rockies game no. 13 thread: Jimmy Herget vs Randy Vásquez

The Colorado Rockies left Coors Field on Wednesday night on top of the world. At 6-6, the Rockies are at .500 at the latest point in the season since 2022, they’re riding a league-high four-game active win streak, and their offense came alive against the Houston Astros. Now comes the test: can the offense stay […]

Senzatela is thriving in the bullpen

If you had asked me a month ago how Antonio Senzatela’s 2026 would end up I would have said he had a good chance of being designated for assignment by midseason. He was arguably the worst performing pitcher in the entire league last year and would almost certainly have been released if it hadn’t been […]
