Plus, Bryan Shaw keeps hanging around, Detroit builds a contender by developing top picks and selling big at the trade deadline, and Hughes' latest book of the month.

Parades in Denver for the Stanley Cup and NBC Championship did well to occupy area sports fans in 2022 and 2023. A second-round exit by the Nuggets following a first-round disappointment for the Avalanche might bring a change for fans of the Colorado Rockies. Will the apathy morph into protests and boycotts or will fans continue to file into Coors Field all summer long?

March/April was the worst hitting month in franchise history. Period. In what areas can Colorado improve? And is it possible they win only a single-digit number of the games on the road?

Plus, the Arizona Diamondbacks get a new and purple City Connect uniform, Michael Toglia battles the challenging realities of WAR and a lineup from 2022 tells a lot about the current state of the 2025 Rockies.

Another day, another loss for the Colorado Rockies who are now on pace for 22 wins for the entire 162-game season. There are many ways to break down how historically bad they've been, but only one way it's been historically good. What hasn't gotten enough love for Colorado?

Shadeur Sanders and the Rockies may appear to have nothing in common, but the controversy surrounding the former CU quarterback could have ramifications on Colorado's money this season. What exactly is the link?

The Colorado Rockies have lost six games in a row, are 1-14 since April 11 and are on a 138-loss pace. Otherwise, things are great. Jordan Beck hit two more home runs and continues to pace the offense on down days. How many special groups did he join with his tremendous 36 hours at the plate this week?

An issue with injured middle infielders continues to plague the Rockies. When will Ezequiel Tovar and Thairo Estrada return and why does Alan Trejo make more sense than Ryan Ritter?

Plus, Michael Toglia slump buster, Ryan McMahon's first day off since 2024, the bullpen's new heroes and a happy ending for Adael Amador's first home run baseball.
