Wilder Dalis is out to prove himself in 2026

Wilder Dalis (No. 24 PuRP) was signed by the Colorado Rockies in May 2023, well after the big signing period that usually happens in January, and has been an under-the-radar prospect since.  Baseball America described him as a “late bloomer” who “turned in an inauspicious pro debut,” but Dalis turned things on in 2025 when […]

Who Might The Rockies Put On The Trade Market?

The playoff picture in both leagues is tight enough that few teams are locked into selling. The Rockies are one of the exceptions. They’re again the worst team in MLB, sitting 18 games under .500 while being outscored by 99 runs. It’s not quite as bleak as last year, when they were arguably the worst […]

Purple Row After Dark: Who’s your favorite current Rockie?

Walking into Sunday’s game vs. the Brewers, my brother-in-law asked me a great question: Who is your favorite current Rockie? Most years, I have a pick right off the bat.

An early glimpse at Rockies 2026 attendance

Sitting in the hot seats at the Rockies game on Sunday, I glanced around and was surprised at two things: more Brewers fans and more empty seats than I expected.  A summertime Sunday at Coors Field usually means jam-packed concourses and concession lines, but the crowd of 32,270 was pretty manageable. We had empty seats […]

Purple Row After Dark: Brainstorming a new nightly mascot race

The Milwaukee Brewers just came to town and took a series from the Colorado Rockies. It’s only fair that they leave behind the inspiration for a new tradition.

Kyle Freeland’s record-breaking day spoiled by a 12-4 loss to the Brewers

On a hot and windy day, Sunday’s finale started off promising but ended looking incredibly lopsided.
