2017 Colorado Rockies: 1 Winning Road Record Since 1993


OFFNY

Recommended Posts

o

 

The Colorado Rockies were founded in 1993.

Since their inception, they have had one winning season on the road ...... they went 41-40 away from Coors Field in 2009.

Even in the season in which they won the National League Pennant and made it to the World Series in 2007, they went 39-42 when not playing in Denver.

 

Well, THIS YEAR'S Rockies team appears to be different. So far, they actually have a better record on the road (23-10) than they do at home (17-13.)

 

In their 25th season of existence, could this Rockies team be as good (or even better) than the 2007 National League champions ??? Stay tuned, and find out. There's still a lot of baseball left to be played in 2017.

The Rockies are 39-36 on the road, with 7 games still left to be played.

They would need to go 2-4 or better the rest of the way in order to secure their 2nd-ever winning road record in franchise history (1993-Present.)

 

Since this thread was started back in June, the Rockies have gone 16-26 on the road ........ going 10-24 over a 34-game stretch before putting together a 6-game road winning streak earlier this month.

The Rockies just barely finished with their 2nd-ever winning road record (41-40) in their franchise history (1993-Present.)

Since this thread was started, they went from a 23-10 road record to going 18-30 over their final 48 road contests.

 

They were subsequently eliminated in the Wildcard playoff game by their Western division rivals, the Arizona DiamondBacks.

The Rockies did it again, for the just the 3rd time in franchise history.

This time, they went 44-38 on the road, setting a franchise best (1993 - Present.)

    • Grayson has a better spring ERA than Bradish. ERA ain’t everything, but I think “hard pressed” is a bit of an overstatement. 
    • I hope the front office knows the Frazier signing was super dumb use of resources when you have top IF talent like Westburg.
    • Really enjoyed seeing Wells' confidence today.  Looked great. 
    • Taking what I have seen from ST and past performance: 1)  Grayson Rodriguez -  He is not there yet but over the course of 2023 I think he become the staff ace.   I am not even sure he makes the rotation to begin the season but he has the best stuff and makeup to be the O's best starter. 100 IP   3.50 ERA  2) DL Hall -  He is changing from a thrower to a pitchers.  His pitches are off the chart but he has to calm down.  Still has to master his pitches from the stretch.   Begins as AAA but he is likely to find his control early in the season. TOR Starter in the making. 100 IP   3.50 ERA 3) Kyle Bradish  -  Has the pitches and the durability.  Will blow up now and then but overall he has he stuff to beat any team on a given day.   Will be going deep in games soon.  #2 stuff. 170 IP   3.28 ERA (like 2nd half) 4) Dean Kremer -  Growing into a solid starter.   His stuff is there.   #3 Stuff 160 IP  3.23 ERA (like last year) 5) John Means -   Former All Star just need to get healthy.  See him in July.  May be better in 2024 than in 2023.  #3 stuff 75 IP  3.81 ERA (Career ERA) 6) Tyler Wells -  He goes 5 inning and allow 1 run, he could be in the rotation to begin the season.   Average fastball but he has 5 pitches.  #4 starter stuff 130 IP   3.38 ERA  (last year 1st half) 7)   Cole Irvin -  I have enjoyed watching him this spring but he is only facing AAA competition.   I still need to understand  why he had a 5.29 ERA away from Oakland Stadium.   #5  Capable of  180 IP    4.20 ERA 8  Kyle Gibson -  The O's defense, the Wall and Holt/Holmes  coaching will help him but he is only a #5.   Similar to Jordan Lyles. May be traded in July for  a prospect. 100 IP   4.32 ERA 9)  Spenser Watkins -  Good backup starter who pitches better as a starter than a reliever.  Will probably not see a lot of time in the majors.  Capable of 140 IP  4.17 ERA as a starter but will probably not get that opportunity in the majors. 10)  Voth  - Probably a mid/long reliever and swing man.   Had a nice year as a starter for the O's last year.  3.04 ERA  (like last season) 11) Bruce Zimmermann -  Looks better this spring but I really can't place him after last years performance.      
    • "He's a funny guy, that parrot, isn't he?" "He sure is."
    • Wells was very good today. Grayson was great last year in triple a and is obviously a top prospect, but you’d be hard pressed to say he was one of the orioles top 5 starters this spring
