Rockies News
The Colorado Rockies are limping towards the finish line with a disheartening 50-77 record, after taking a 4-6 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers yesterday. With only 35 games left in the season, the Rockies are staring down the barrel of a potential fourth straight season with 100 losses, needing to claw for at least 13 more wins just to avoid that ignominious mark. Fans are still holding onto hope, but the pitching staff is bleeding runs at an alarming rate of 6.3 per game over the last week. The offense, led by Jake McCarthy's .295 batting average, is putting up decent numbers, but it’s hard to outscore opponents when your pitching struggles are so pronounced. The Rockies' situation is grim, and with these stakes, every game feels like a must-win.
