Ah, yes, it’s the Spurs-Wolves second-round clash that everyone anticipated! No one around here penciled in a Spurs-Nuggets tilt, and there’s also no evidence of yours truly crashing out following San Antonio’s final regular-season loss to Denver. Now that we have our matchup set, it’s time to dive into some stylistic battles that could take […]
The Colorado Rockies started the week by sweeping a double-header against the New York Mets, but sadly managed just one more win through the rest of it. During the week, the month of April drew to a close. Their 13-14 record for the month was the best April the Rockies have managed since 2022—where they […]
The Colorado Rockies were hoping their offense would take flight after last night’s showing, but unfortunately it did not. Instead, the offense was limited to just four hits, while Chase Dollander got roughed up for the first time this season. Playing from behind Brennan Bernardino served as the opener, and he left Dollander with a […]
With a chance to secure the series win, the Braves had ace Chris Sale on the mound at Coors Field with young Rockies star Chase Dollander expected to take the mound after an opener. The Braves followed my recommendation in the first inning, jumping on the opener Brennan Bernardino, as Ronald hit a line drive […]
Let’s beat the Rockies again tonight, but maybe don’t go down 5-0 in the first inning this time. Join us and discuss tonight’s game in the comments below!

The Minnesota Timberwolves completed the kill shot Thursday night. They ended the Denver Nuggets’ season, sent Nikola Jokic off to whatever offseason horse-stable sanctuary awaits him in Serbia, and won the rubber match in what has become the best rivalry this franchise has ever had. Wolves-Nuggets, Round 3: Minnesota takes it. Again. While many of […]
After an epic comeback victory in game 1, the Braves will hope to secure yet another series win behind their ace against a Rockies team that is generally not good but has been competitive this season. Chris Sale has been great this season, despite one of his career-worst starts against the Angels. Coors can always […]
It’s that time of year again. Michael Porter Jr. is on the podcast circuit with its usual misogyny, assorted hangers-on and certified weirdness that, sadly, we’ve become accustomed to. He’s been warned about it and we’ve commented on it. But as in the past, there’s usually some news amidst the detritus: After intially admitting to […]
Following the sweep of the LA Kings, a week off gave pause and a chance to look ahead at the big picture of the ultimate goal of hoisting the Stanley Cup in June. Here is where the Colorado Avalanche currently stand heading into their second round match with the Minnesota Wild, and what may be […]
The Rockies definitely had the Braves for the first seven innings. Ah but in the last three games, the leading team didn’t finish the job. Michael Harris II was headed for the Injured List as well, don’t you know. Then, he came on to pinch hit. Yup, pretty standard Braves heroics at the end. Here […]
As several Colorado Rockies search for traction on offense, it makes sense that the next wave of Albuquerque names has started to become more interesting. Cole Carrigg (No. 4 PuRP) has been part of that conversation. Charlie Condon (No. 1 PuRP), too. Sterlin Thompson (No. 13 PuRP) is a quieter name, but maybe a more intriguing one than first appears. […]
I won’t lie: The Colorado Avalanche are hockey’s Darth Vader. Pick your favorite unkillable, inevitable movie villain. The Terminator. Anton Chigurh. “Shooter” McGavin. The Avalanche have all the skill and systems in place to maximize a salary cap roster. So, let’s get under the hood. Wh...
The Miami Dolphins had plenty of needs to address during the NFL Draft and wide receiver was one of them. After trading away Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos, the Dolphins lacked a top receiver but had plenty of bodies in the room. The expectation was that Miami would use one of their top three […]
The Colorado Rockies came out hot. The Atlanta Braves stirred in the fourth, pushed again in the seventh, and fully woke up in the eighth and ninth. A 6-0 Colorado lead became an 8-6 loss at Coors Field. The Braves improved to 23-10, while the Rockies fell to 14-19. For a while, it looked like […]
This Braves road trip couldn’t have started much worse, with the team facing a 5-0 deficit in the first inning. It ended, though, like so many games have this season. With Atlanta celebrating a victory. The Braves rallied from a 6-0 second-inning deficit for an 8-6 victory over the Colorado Rockies in the opener of […]
After a 4-2 homestand, the Atlanta Braves begin a nine-game road trip Friday night in Colorado at 8:40 p.m. EDT. The Braves bring the best record in baseball (22-10) and a 6.5-game lead in the NL East into the road trip, which will conclude with series against the Seattle Mariners and Los Angeles Dodgers. Follow […]
On April 17th, the Los Angeles Dodgers came to Denver with the best record in baseball, a relentless offense, and a pitching staff that made the matchup feel unfair. The Rockies did not need to prove they were better than Los Angeles. They just needed to survive it — and they did, finishing the four-game series […]
While he didn’t play a second in their first-round series due to a hamstring injury, Denver Nuggets fourth-year wing revealed himself as arguably the Nuggets’ biggest X-Factor. Now, he will enter restricted free agency for the first time in his career after the organization elected to pay Christian Braun instead of him last summer. At […] The post Why Heat should target this under-the-radar free agent wing appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Braves manager Walt Weiss said the team plans to use Michael Harris II primarily as a designated hitter for this upcoming nine-game road trip, which begins Friday against the Colorado Rockies, to allow his lingering quad injury a chance to heal. But Harris will actually start the road trip on the bench as he’s not […]
It’s only fitting that Quinn Hughes scored the opening goal in the Minnesota Wild’s decisive Game 6 victory, then scored the go-ahead goal in the third. The score will read 5-2 with Matt Boldy scoring the final two goals on empty nets. However, Hughes’ wily tally in the third put the Wild in the lea...
The longest road trip on the Braves’ 2026 schedule is here. The team kicks off May with its only three-city road trip of the season, a nine-game jaunt which carries through next weekend. Unfortunately for us people who appreciate a healthy night’s rest, this trip is back on the West Coast, starting Friday night in […]
No Anthony Edwards. No Donte DiVincenzo. No Ayo Dosunmu. No Kyle Anderson. Didn’t matter. The Minnesota Timberwolves eliminated the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night in Game 6, 110-98, in a game that spoke volumes about the culture within each organization. The Timberwolves faced hardships at multiple points in this series and overcame them all. The […]
At the start of every baseball season, hope springs eternal — even for the Colorado Rockies. In recent seasons, that optimism of better play quickly evaporated as the Rockies were practically eliminated from the playoffs by the end of April. This April was different. Even after Thursday’s loss to the Cincinnati Reds, the Rockies just concluded […]
Though they have yet to lose a series, the Atlanta Braves had a chance at a sweep spoiled in Thursday afternoon’s 5-2 loss to the Detroit Tigers. The Braves jumped out to an early lead, and a strong start from Bryce Elder put them in position to complete the sweep. However, things unraveled late. Atlanta’s […]
Quinn Hughes scored a pair of goals, including the game-winner, and had an assist, and the Minnesota Wild eliminated the Dallas Stars with a rousing 5-2 victory in Game 6 at Grand Casino Arena in Saint Paul. It was Minnesota’s first postseason series win since 2015. Former Florida Panther Vladimir Tarasenko and Matt Boldy also scored for the Wild, who got 21 saves from goaltender Jesper Wallstadt. Minnesota will take on the Colorado Avalanche next. Leo Carlsson, Chris Kreider an...
