What did POBO Paul DePodesta say regarding the offers for Hunter Goodman, Jake McCarthy and Mickey Moniak?

Colorado added two Top 30 prospects, according to MLB Pipeline. How many of these pitchers have a chance to debut this season? And who's the 16-year-old that could turn into the next Fernando Tatis Jr.?

Hunter Goodman had another multi-homer game to put himself alongside - and, in one case, above - some all-time greats. What elite group did his two-homer game on Saturday allow him to join?

Plus, Kyle Freeland's impressive complete game on Sunday, the Dodgers get Tarik Skubal and a few former Rockies get traded around the league.

Days from the MLB trade deadline, the Colorado Rockies will have a lot of suitors trying to acquire their best talent. With the leverage falling on their side, what teams should Paul DePodesta and Josh Byrnes make sure they negotiation with? Why is it still not a bad idea to make a trade with the Los Angeles Dodgers?

Colorado lost two in San Diego, but they witnessed Gabriel Hughes pitch like a boss once again. How good - historically speaking - has he been in his first five games as a big leaguer?

Plus, the importance of the ACL Rockies winning a championship, the downward trending offense and defense of the Rockies and an opportunity to win a series against a really bad Kansas City Royals.

Colorado has a crowded outfield right now. And that doesn't even include a trio of youngsters at Triple-A Albuquerque. Brenton Doyle, on the road to recovery from a left groin strain, is playing well with ABQ. When he returns on Friday, will GM Josh Byrnes have traded away at least one outfielder to make space for the two-time Gold Glove Award winner? Could Doyle himself be traded?

A total of eight prospects have made their MLB debut with Warren Schaeffer's club this season. While they may not reach the heights of 13 debuts from a year ago, at least three more are set to take center stage in the Majors for the first time. Who could make the jump directly from Double-A Hartford? And why might the number creep close to 13 in the second half?

Plus, a trio of 19-year-old prospects play well in the minors, Michael Lorenzen potentially makes his last start in purple and holding a Legends Day at Coors Field to celebrate the greats of the past.

Jacob Misiorowski was on another level against the Colorado Rockies on Sunday. The Milwaukee Brewers ace was damn near perfect - and perfect with all strikeouts, nearly - before he ran into the fresh-faced freshman known as Cole Carrigg. What history did Carrigg make against The Miz? And could he make a push for NL Rookie of the Year despite missing the first two months?

Trade rumors continue to grow for a Rockies team that has let other clubs know who's on the market. Which seven players have the strongest odds of being dealt according to Bob Nightengale? And why did the asking price for Hunter Goodman grow even larger to the point that Colorado may not be able to say no?

Plus, Tomoyuki Sugano joins a special group, Colorado continues to struggle in rubber matches and why your perspective on the Rockies may not be wrong from where you're standing (even if everyone disagrees with you).

Gabriel Hughes was impressive for the second time at Coors Field during the first homestand following the All-Star break. What has manager Warren Schaeffer seen in the 24-year-old rookie? Does Hughes actually prefer pitch suggesting?

Ezequiel Tovar has struggled mightily at the plate this season. Does a day off on Wednesday against the Washington Nationals signal anything? 

Plus, another loss in a rubber match, Milwaukee's successful strategy for always being competitive and Rockies fans struggle on RockiesVision.

Colorado sent RHP Seth Halvorsen to the Los Angeles Dodgers for two prospects on Monday in a deal like we've never seen between the two NL West foes. What does this deal suggest about the Rockies new front office? Is there a higher likelihood Colorado wins this trade?

Rumors about Hunter Goodman being traded continue to heat up, but the reality of such a deal remains exactly the same as the last time you checked. What do you need to know about the rumor mill? Is there anyone untouchable on the Rockies right now?

Plus, Kyle Freeland sparks a bench-clearing incident against the Nationals, Willi Castro continues to play well and Nolan Arenado does something only five players - five no-doubt Hall of Famers - have done.

For the first time in Colorado Rockies history, a player has hit three home runs in the same game twice in the same season. Hunter Goodman: you are that damn good. What's next on the Goodman historical trajectory? And which of his teammates thinks he'll hit 50 home runs this year?

As Goodman continues to be successful for the second consecutive season and quiet doubters along the way, his price ahead of the trade deadline will only grow stronger. Would dealing him be a mistake? Or should this new front office and all their early success be trusted to make such a substantial trade?

Plus, Gabriel Hughes impresses in his Coors Field debut, TJ Rumfield's case for NL Rookie of the Year improves again and what the Rockies record in rubber matches means for the team right now.

The second half of the 2026 season is here and the Colorado Rockies have a lot of unfinished business for the final 2.5 months. How important is avoiding 100 losses actually? Is the success of Ezequiel Tovar the most important thing? 

The 2027 MLB schedule has arrived and Colorado knows exactly where it will be next year (assuming we have a normal season). Where will the Rockies start on Opening Day? Who's their home opener against? Could they have three fireworks nights in a row leading towards the 4th of July?

Plus, Colorado's remaining strength of schedule, upcoming injury news for some key members of the club and one of the hottest promotional giveaways in baseball this weekend.

Blink and you missed the action during the 2026 MLB All-Star Game at Citizens Bank Park. The American League shutout the National League as both sides combined to strike out 27 times, more than any other nine-inning affair in the game's history. What were the other problems with this year's Midsummer Classic?

Hunter Goodman had a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment as well. You may have also him behind the plate with his red, white and blue catcher's gear that looked a lot like something a Phillies backstop would wear. What cool event was Goodman able to participate in on Tuesday night?

Plus, debating the merits of allowing players to play in the 2028 Summer Olympics over the All-Star Game, Jordan Walker wins a really good Home Run Derby in enemy territory and The Sandlot tribute steals the show.
