Drew Goodman has been the television play-by-play voice of the Colorado Rockies since 2002, witnessing many ups and downs of Denver’s only Major League Baseball franchise.

Does the rebound from the starting rotation, especially Kyle Freeland, suggest an improvement in the win column is on the way? And how overlooked has Hunter Goodman and Jordan Beck been this season?

Plus, Carson Palmquist makes noise in Albuquerque and we share our favorite Bud Black stories and those Bud-isms that will forever make us smile.

The vibe seems different in Arlington so far under new manager Warren Schaeffer. Why the noticeable change from the roster? And how much different will Schaeff's style be than his predecessor Bud Black?

Is the starting rotation coming back up to the norm following strong starts from Germán Márquez and Chase Dollander? Does it have anything to do with all eyes from the baseball world descending upon the Rockies?

Plus, potential for Aaron Schunk and Kyle Farmer to pitch this season, increased playing time for Adael Amador and the odds of GM Bill Schmidt keeping his job.

Changing the captain of a sinking ship doesn't exactly alter the course. Are the Rockies seriously considering an evaluator to dig into the necessary changes needed throughout the organization? Is it possible to install the team's first ever President of Baseball Operations?

Are there benefits to going with a new, younger manager in Warren Schaeffer? Could this help turns things around for at least a few individual players?

Patrick also answers questions from The Insiders - subscribers and members of the Rockies community - regarding what's next for their favorite club.

Before Bud Black was relieved of his duties, Colorado suffered the worst loss in franchise history. While not the most lopsided - remember that 25-1 loss to the Angels in 2023? - it was certainly the most embarrassing as they were shutout by a pitcher making his second career start.

How ugly did it get exactly for the Rockies against the Padres? Was watching the catcher become the pitcher at least fun when Jacob Stallings took the mound?

Plus, injury updates on Ezequiel Tovar and Kris Bryant, Aaron Schunk's big game against a future Hall of Famer and previewing the Texas Rangers series.
