Shohei Ohtani hits 300th career home run

Disappointed Dodgers Star Takes Full Blame for Tough Rockies Loss After Making “Mental Errors”

The Dodgers fought until the very end to replicate their series-opening win, but they ultimately fell short against the Colorado Rockies.

The Rockies have a signature eighth inning and stun the Dodgers 4-3

Hunter Goodman Is MLB’s Best Under-the-Radar Trade Chip

If you look up the definition of “punching bag” on the Merriam Webster website, you will find a description that says, “One who is routinely abused or defeated by another.” Next to that is a picture of the Colorado Rockies logo. Okay, maybe that second part isn’t true. Perhaps it should be, though, because the […] The post Hunter Goodman Is MLB’s Best Under-the-Radar Trade Chip appeared first on Just Baseball .

“Big Misunderstanding” – Dodgers Manager Steps In After Dalton Rushing Engages in Bench-Clearing Brawl

Rockies comeback falls short in 8-7 extra-innings loss to Dodgers

The “Rockies never say die!” attitude was alive and well on Monday night. Despite being down 6-1 after four innings, they chipped away at the lead to set up an exhilarating ninth inning where the Rockies scored three runs to send the game to extra innings — a first for the Dodgers in 2026. The […]

Not Rushing to a win, Dodgers walk it off in extras

The streak of no extra-inning games is finally over, and we can say that the Dodgers are undefeated in extras this season, walking it off against the Rockies 8-7 in the 11th inning. The decisive hit in this thrilling game came from the bat of Dalton Rushing with an RBI single, completing a terrific three-hit […]

Back where it all started in Eric Lauer’s Dodgers tenure

Kyle Freeland against Eric Lauer as the first-place Dodgers host the last-place Rockies is the matchup for the start of a series that represents the last Colorado visit to Los Angeles this season. Anyone’s feelings of déjà vu will be validated with this specific matchup because it has taken place once already this season; in […]

Yankees Potential Trade Partner: San Francisco Giants

The Giants should be damn happy they play in the same division as the Rockies. If it weren’t for the best-run front office of 2004, San Francisco would be in an even worse spot than their current .420 winning percentage, but regardless look to be sellers at the trade deadline. I’m of the opinion that […]

Purple Row After Dark: Discussing the 2026 MLB All-Star Game Rosters

Back in March, we posed questions around way-too-early All-Star Game roster predictions, asking which Rockie (or, optimistically, Rockies) you thought would represent the club in Philadelphia, whether Hunter Goodman would be a repeat All-Star, and which surprise players from around the league would make or miss the Midsummer Classic. Over the course of the season, […]

Kyle Karros’ moonshot the difference maker in Rockies’ 7-6 win over the Giants

The Colorado Rockies took the field under the scorching sun at Coors Field this afternoon looking for a series win against the San Francisco Giants to close out their final homestand before the All-Star Break. It wasn’t always pretty, but these scrappy and exciting rebuilding Rockies kept themselves within reach at all times, kept the […]

MLB Trade Rumors: Astros & Rockies Becoming Trade Partners

We're within a month of the trade deadline now, and teams' needs are coming into clear focus, if they hadn't been already.  In Houston, the Astros are 24th in OPS in left field and 23rd in center field, and getting hardly any production out of those two spots (not that Cam Smith's .220/.293/.380 slash line with a .673 OPS is killing it in right field, either). It's clear where their priority lies at the deadline, as they've got two notable names from the Colorado Rockies outfield squarely...

Astros Interested In Rockies Outfielders, Skubal, Gray

The Astros have “strong interest in” Rockies outfielders Mickey Moniak and Jake McCarthy, according to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale.  In even more notable trade deadline news, Nightengale writes that the Astros “also plan to be in the Tarik Skubal and Sonny Gray sweepstakes.” While Houston is still only 44-47, that record breaks down as an […]

After a hot start to July, the Rockies cool down in a 6-4 loss to the Giants

Following an 11-15 June, the Colorado Rockies kicked off July with three straight wins. They entered the Saturday holiday matchup with back-to-back 14+ run games. On a day that got a little wonky between injuries, weather delays, umpire injury delays, and more, the Rockies weren’t able to secure a fourth straight win, as the San […]
