Latest news and updates about the Rockies
One day, I will be able to write up a Cubs recap and present a lot of highlights from the game. Today is not that day. (Though I do have SOME video to show you.) The Cubs lost to the Rockies 4-3 at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale Saturday afternoon, another very warm day in […]

I think it may be possible there’s some risk in trading for Rockies relievers. The org isn’t exactly known for churning out well-developed arms, and Angel Chivilli is having a nightmare of a spring training. The Yankees got a good start from Max Fried — save one bad frame — and clawed their way out […]
Go get ‘em, Ben.
Colorado Rockies spring training game no. 22 thread: Ben Brown vs. Kyle Freeland Yesterday the Rockies fell to the Texas Rangers, 9–4. Colorado couldn’t overcome a disastrous third inning in which starter José Quintana was pulled after allowing five runs before Ryan Miller entered and surrendered two more. Quintana later returned to start the fourth inning — a maneuver allowed under the […]
Jacob Misiorowski is on the mound today as the Milwaukee Brewers take on a split-squad Colorado Rockies lineup this afternoon. Zach Agnos will start for the Rockies. It’ll be just Misiorowski’s second outing in the Cactus League, following his March 8 outing against the Mariners in which he allowed one run on two hits and […]

If you’ve heard much about RHP John Brebbia, it might have something to do with his beard — which has a story all its own. (More on that in a minute.) Right now, however, the reliever is working to make the Colorado Rockies as they begin to shore up their Opening Day roster. Last weekend, […]
More than 750 players have appeared in a Rockies game — but only about 200 have ever started on Opening Day. As spring training is in full swing and Opening Day is approaching quickly (seriously… how is it March 14th already?!), there are still plenty of roster battles playing out. The Colorado Rockies will open the season in Miami on March 27, and the […]
Record: 9-12. Change on 2025: -1.5. 5-inning Record: 5-14-2. The D-Backs responded to an ugly loss against the Rockies yesterday with some surprising power during an uneven – but victorious – performance in Surprise. Merrill Kelly made his Spring Training debut and looked all right. He threw 36 pitches with a slight emphasis on his […]
On Monday, we asked which Rockie you thought was having the best WBC and who you were rooting for to win. Last night, we asked who you think will win the whole thing. Today, I present you the results from Monday’s poll: The majority of fans believe that INF Willi Castro. Castro has gone 3-f0r-10 […]
After recording a scoreless appearance in three innings with one strikeout and one walk in the World Baseball Classic as the captain for Colombia’s squad, new Rockies José Quintana (1-0, 0.00 ERA) is back in action today as Colorado (10-8-1) hosts the Texas Rangers (11-8) at Salt River Fields. The Rockies will face Jabob Latz […]
Texas Rangers lineup for March 13, 2026 against the Colorado Rockies. Texas heads to Scottsdale to take on the Rockies of Colorado. Sam Haggerty is playing second base and Josh Smith is at third, as Josh Jung continues to be unavailable. Jacob Latz is starting. The lineup: Nimmo — RF Langford — CF Seager — […]
From 2013 onward, third base for the Rockies had been synonymous with only two names: Nolan Arenado and then Ryan McMahon. Because of those two, Colorado has had a Gold Glove finalist at the hot corner each of the past 13 seasons. It has been one of the most stable positions in the entire league. […]
Getting to the Major League level is hard, even for talented players who have excelled at baseball their whole lives. Staying and playing consistently well is even harder. In addition to the higher level of competition, players also have to adjust to the grind of the MLB schedule. Even with all the talent in the […]
Introduction After reviewing the offseason of the Colorado Rockies and the Los Angeles Dodgers the last two weeks, today we continue our NL West Offseason reviews with a look at the San Diego Padres. 2025 Season Overview/Recap The Padres got off to a great start to begin the 2025 season, matching their best-19 game start […]
The Texas Rangers are signing lefthanded reliever Jalen Beeks to a one year deal, per Evan Grant. Beeks, 32, first debuted in 2018 with the Boston Red Sox, and was traded to Tampa mid-season for Nathan Eovaldi. He was with the Rays until the 2023 offseason, when he was claimed on waivers by the Colorado […]
Record 8-12. Change on 2025: -1.5. 5-inning record: 4-14-2. Another day, another spring-worst margin of defeat. After losing by ten runs yesterday, the D-backs went one better (or worse?) this afternoon at Salt River Fields. It was an ugly afternoon for the Arizona pitchers, who handed out a dozen free passes to Colorado hitters, thanks […]
Playing shortstop is a point of pride. Even now, years later, it still visits me in dreams — the slow chopper that turns into a barehand play; the diving backhand deep in the hole; the thrill of a perfectly timed double play. Shortstop lives at the heart of the diamond. Every ground ball feels like it might […]
Hello everyone! The Mariners continued their run as the Cactus League’s sad sack losers, falling prey to the Rockies in an 11-7 slugfest. The good news is Matt Brash made his spring debut and appears to be on track for an Opening Day return. If you were the Mariners, would you ever consider stretching Brash […]
In March the sun rises in Arizona just before 7:00 a.m. It varies slightly from team to team but, for decades spring training work has generally been expected to start around that time. Just last month the Arizona Diamondbacks social team showed off their players arriving to camp in darkness: This schedule is widely disliked […]
If you take out the eight runs given up by Casey Lawrence in the final three innings, this game is a decisive win for the Mariners, and I invite you to live in that reality instead of this one, where the Mariners lose 11-7 to the Colorado Rockies, which even in Spring Training, feels embarrassing. […]
The talk of the baseball world today is Italy’s stunning upset of Team USA in the World Baseball Classic. The 8-6 win is the biggest for Italy in international play, and was led by Colorado Rockies’ RHP Michael Lorenzen pitching 4.2 scoreless innings and giving up only two hits to some of the best batters […]
The Mariners take on the Rockies and their ace Chase Dollander today. Luis Castillo will take the ball for the Mariners. Also scheduled to pitch for the Mariners: Casey Lawrence, José Ferrer, Matt Brash, Carlos Vargas, Yosver Zulueta Injury news: Bryce Miller will throw a 25-pitch bullpen today as he continues to work his way […]
The Colorado Rockies enter the 2026 season searching for consistency across much of its lineup. For the Rockies last season, most positions were a revolving door. Swapping out struggling players, testing out prospects, and dealing with player injuries all contributed to the overall lack of stability. As the organization continues to evaluate young talent and […]
