Why did Tracy go back to Tulo - Helton 4 -5. He changed that up for only one game? If Tulocan hit home runs in the 5 hole LEAVE HIM THERE! He's the biggest rally killer in the lineup in the 4 hole. But maybe Troy's feeling were hurt by the move so O'Dowd put a stop to it?  

Wonder if we can break away and start a new league with the Cubs?

Really what this game showed is that the Rockies have two superstars, Tulo and Cargo, and a very good player in Cuddyer.

Denver Post baseball reporter Troy E. Renck responds to your questions in the Rockies Mailbag. In this installment, Troy takes nine Q's, including one wondering if Colorado needs a new pitching coach.  

I believe that a scuffed baseball is actually an advantage for the pitchers. If they are smart they can make it move a lot. The Umps use to examine the ball but now it is just automatic, making it fair for both teams. Ground balls that have a lot of top spin wont scuff as easily as pitches in the dirt. That's why pitchers use to get in trouble for "scuffing" the balls and raising the seams because of the advantage it gave them. I don't think...

Heading into their weekend series against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field this past weekend, the Atlanta Braves seemed as though they be going in reverse. They had just lost two-of-three games to the Philadelphia Phillies, dropping their first series since the New York Mets swept them to begin the season. They even needed extra innings to win a 15-13 showdown on May 2.  

DENVER - As usual, the Dodgers got power and production up the middle. For once, center fielder Matt Kemp wasn't the one doing the heavy lifting. Catcher A.J. Ellis homered and drove in three runs, shortstop Dee Gordon hit his first major league home run and second baseman Mark Ellis had four singles and made the game-saving play in the ninth inning to preserve a 7-6 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night.

With Miller's rehab assignment coming up on its limits, the Sox were in a situation where they either had to promote...  

Aaron Cook's opt-out was set for May 1. He was eligible to invoke its awesome free-agent-granting powers should the Red Sox not have him on the major-league roster by the time the clock and calendar struck May 2.

As of late Tuesday night, there was no Aaron Cook news...
