Colorado Rockies

You've probably never heard of Matt Daley, unless you're a fan of an NL West team. Heck, I'd never heard of him until the Rockies called the right-handed relief pitcher up early last season. Given that I know about 2000 active players, Daley's failure to merit a blip on my radar reflected his anonymity. He didn't get a big league look until he was nearly 27. In his first season in the majors, Daley certainly showed one pronounced trend: he...

The Colorado Rockies are becoming known as a come-from-behind team. In 2007 the Rockies completed the best three weeks to end a season in the history of the game. In 2009, the Rockies recovered from a such a huge deficit that Congress may want to call Jim Tracy for some advice. The Rockies are quickly gaining notoriety around the baseball world as a good team, but they have already achieved one title that they aim to change in 2010. The...  

This marks the third edition in my new series in which I am attempting to name the top ten players in the history of each MLB franchise. This one will take a look at some of the Rockies greats. With as prolific an offense as the Rockies have had through the years, it only makes sense that the top seven guys on this list would be hitters. After all, in 1996, five of those seven guys were teammates and combined for 176 home runs and 590 RBI...

I wanted to read this article but I couldn't get past the ridiculous first statement. Since when is it a weakness to utilize an infielder (Bernier) who has consistently led the league defensively each year? I don't know, is a career 2nd base fielding percentage of .981 (thebaseballcube.com) bad? I don't know, is that "so hurt, so bad?" And journeyman? He spent 6 years with the Rockies didnt he? Such lack of insight in just the first...
