The last time I saw the #Rockies win in person was with my Mom & Dad in 2018 when DJ hit a walk-off HR against the Dbacks.
In the first game I attend since my Dad passed away in June, I got to witness a comeback victory w/ my Mom against the Dbacks.

If I could just sit and talk to minor leaguers like Braiden Ward every day, life would just be great. Enjoyed this chat quite a bit. He's one of the great personalities in the system and I hope he gets a big league opportunity!
In this new Rooftop Mingle, Albuquerque Isotopes OF Braiden Ward talks about the grind of being a late-round draft pick, the art of speed, & catching a big fish. @ffsn

Seriously, the Human Glitch is breaking my brain as to why he's been so effective this season.
For no discernible reason that @stimmins13.bsky.social can wrap his head around, #Rockies reliever Jimmy Herget has been excellent out of the pen through the first month of the season. @ffsn.bsky.social

There is likely some sort of number or statistic that is making Herget perform as the rate he currently is, but the beauty of baseball is that there doesn't have to be a definitive answer.

I didn't realize just how good Jake Bird has been this season for the #Rockies out of the bullpen. He leads the team in rWAR oddly enough (0.9), owns a 0.93 ERA at Coors Field, & has a 32.4 K%.

Side note: It's wild that the #Rockies got 8.1 innings from Octavio Dotel at the end of the 2010 season after a trade, chose a $250K buyout instead of his $4.5M 2011 option, and got a comp pick that they used to get Trevor Story
The late Octavio Dotel once held the MLB record for most teams played for during his career at 13. This included eight appearances and 5.1 innings for the Colorado #Rockies in 2010. The Dodgers traded Dotel to the Rockies in exchange for minor league OF Anthony Jackson.
