Rockies News

The Colorado Rockies kicked off the 2026 season with a 2-1 loss to the Miami Marlins, and while Juan Mejia's tenacity on the mound showed promise, the team failed to deliver when it counted. With Mickey Moniak hitting the injured list with a sprained finger, the Rockies are already feeling the sting of adversity just one game in. Kyle Karros made his first Opening Day start, a nod to a fresh chapter for the franchise, but the haunting feeling of missed opportunities lingered as the Rockies couldn't capitalize despite a strong showing from their bullpen. As fans reflect on the game, the overwhelming sentiment is one of cautious optimism mixed with an all-too-familiar frustration,can this year's team truly break the cycle of struggles that have defined past seasons?

Marlins 2, Rockies 1: Alcantara stifles Rox in tight Opening Day
The Colorado Rockies opened the 2026 season in Miami with a lineup that looked nothing like the one that started 2025 — between debuts and new additions, this felt less like a continuation and more like a reset.   Kyle Karros made his first Opening Day start, following in the footsteps of his father Eric, who made nine in his career.   […]
