Latest news and updates about the Rockies
Hunter Goodman hit his 26th homer of the season, setting the new all-time Rockies record for most homers before July 1, but it wasn’t enough to overcome a brutal outing from the Colorado bullpen as the Rockies dropped the first game of the series to the Marlins on Monday night. Goodman’s solo shot in the […]

While there hasn’t been a ton of action in the later innings of this Rockies-Marlins game, there’s been so much action in the comments that we decided it warranted an overflow thread for the final three innings! In case you forgot, here are the lineups: Continue to keep it civil, friends, and please remember the Purple […]
Just about three months ago, the Rockies opened up the 2026 season in Miami against the Marlins. It didn’t go very well. Colorado got swept 3-0, but the good news is that the Rockies lost each game by one run, including a walk-off 4-3 loss in game three. Now, the 1993 expansion teams will face […]
The Twins welcomed the Dodgers and the Rockies to Target Field this past week, and it went pretty much how any fan would have expected. The Twins had some of the highest-attended games, with a sellout crowd on Wednesday of 39,853 to watch Shohei Ohtani duel Joe Ryan. Ironically, the team was woefully unprepared for […]
Before 2023, if you were a fan of both an AL and an NL team that were not a part of the same divisions of their respective leagues, you would be lucky if you saw them play against each other once every three years. Therefore, the Minnesota Twins rarely played the Colorado Rockies.
One of the things I’ve always appreciated about baseball is the lack of an exact mold that everything must fit into. Players of all different body types can be stars (see: Jose Altuve, Jacob Misiorowski, Cal Raleigh, etc.). The playing field is not required to be uniform making every ballpark have little unique quirks. Almost […]
After late-inning shenanigans in many of the Rockies’ recent games, the Colorado Rockies came into their Sunday afternoon rubber match against the Minnesota Twins looking for another series win. However, the Rockies’ bats went quiet against the Twins pitching staff, wasting a fairly well-pitched game by their own arms. Another quality start for Ryan Feltner […]
After being swept by the presiding World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers this past week, the Minnesota Twins were looking for a “get right” series this weekend with the Colorado Rockies. They got it–taking two-of-three from the Colorado kids and keeping their quest for .500 in the right direction. Twins SP Connor Prielipp’s afternoon did not […]

The Minnesota Twins are indeed hosting the Colorado Rockies this afternoon. But last week, I checked another ballpark—Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona—off my bucket list. […]
Thanks to the incredible power of Hunter Goodman and the purple coat, the Colorado Rockies came away with a win last night in the Twin Cities despite yet more late game drama from the bullpen. With a win this afternoon in the series finale, the Rockies can come away with a series win against the […]
The New York Yankees desperately need to upgrade over Austin Wells at catcher. The Colorado Rockies could wield the best trade chip at the position in Hunter Goodman.
On Saturday night, the Los Angeles Angels signed left-handed pitcher Sammy Peralta to a minor league contract after he became a free agent following his departure from the Colorado Rockies organization. Peralta was designated for assignment by Colorado earlier this week. After clearing waivers, the 28-year-old declined an outright assignment to Triple-A and quickly found […] The post Angels sign reliever to minor league contract appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Former St. Louis Cardinals first-round pick Marco Gonzales recently signed a minor league deal with the Texas Rangers. Gonzales, 34, hasn’t pitched in MLB since 2024. He was originally a draft product of the Colorado Rockies in 2010, but opted not to sign. Eventually, he landed with St. Louis as a first-round pick, 19th overall in 2013, […] The post Former Cardinals’ First-Round Draft Pick Signs With MLB Team appeared first on HEAVY .
The Rockies have the worst record in the majors and haven’t been good in years. They are in clear sell position. What’s not clear is how they will approach the deadline, as they have a new front office in place. The previous front office was notorious for not trading away players at peak value, or […]
On the back of three Hunter Goodman homers, the Colorado Rockies put up another eight runs tonight, and this time, it was enough to take home the victory. Colorado’s #3-hitting DH earned five RBI on the night, popping two homers off starter Mike Paredes, who went a career-best 5.1 innings, then one more off Kody […]
The Angels added left-hander Sammy Peralta on a minor league deal, the team announced. The reliever was designated for assignment by the Rockies earlier this week. Peralta passed through waivers and rejected a minor league assignment. It didn’t take long for him to find a new home. Colorado grabbed Peralta via waiver claim from the […]

The Colorado Rockies kicked off their road trip with yet more hijinks late in the game. Entering the game down 7-0, the Rockies proceeded to score eight unanswered runs to take the lead against the Minnesota Twins only to lose in extra innings due to sloppy play. Now the Rockies will look to win their […]

A successful four-game series versus the New York Yankees will not wash away the pain fans suffered after watching the Boston Red Sox blow two games against the Colorado Rockies just days earlier, nor will it erase all the awful memories from the first half of this extremely disappointing campaign. What it can do, though, […] The post Red Sox receive multiple injury updates amid Yankees clash appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Taking a series from the Yankees doesn’t save the season. But, damn, it feels good. After Payton Tolle dominated on the mound last night, the Sox can keep the good vibes going this afternoon behind Jake Bennett, who is coming off the best outing of his young career, having struck out nine Rockies through six […]
The Rockies have released veteran right-hander Erasmo Ramirez, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. The well-traveled Ramirez began the season in the Mexican League with los Algodoneros del Unión Laguna. Although Ramirez yielded 11 runs on 17 hits and two walks over 12 innings with the club, the Rockies took a flier on the […]
Jimmy Herget’s season looks ordinary until you start pulling it apart. The ERA says middle relief. The whiffs, strike-throwing, pitch shapes, and post-IL work suggest something more useful. That does not make Herget a hidden star. It makes him a strange, practical bullpen arm with enough deception and control to make the Rockies’ deadline question […]
