Randy Flores is the older brother to Ron Flores and in this case is our pick for non roster invitee for the Colorado Rockies. Born in Bellflower California, Flores has made a career out of being a solid left handed choice out of big league bullpens.
Drafted by the New York Yankees he began his pro [...]

When the Colorado Rockies went on a win streak prior to the trade deadline it may have made the front office think twice about dealing away players. No players left Colorado at the deadline. Even closer Brian Fuentes, the most obvious trading chip, was held.
While it could be said that the Rockies didn’t get the [...]

The Colorado Rockies called up reliever Steven Register from Colorado Springs to take the roster spot of the recently designated for assignment Valerio De Los Santos.

The Colorado Rockies sent reliever Josh Newman to Triple-A today. Newman had pitched in eight games but the results were not what he or the team had hoped posting a 9.35 ERA during the span.

This is one tough task but I’ve decided to try and fine a reason to like each of the 30 teams in major league baseball. Now some were easier to find then others and while some will disagree for the reasoning I’ve done my best I think.
I hope to continue this series by creating a [...]

The most glarring upgrade for the Colorado Rockies would be their starting rotation. Before the start of last season they traded away Jason Jennings, the winningest pitcher in franchise history, for Jason Hirsh, Taylor Buchholz and center fielder Willy Tavares.
In Hirsh the Rockies were getting a 6′8″ righty who dominated Triple-A in 2006. For the [...]

I tried to withstand it. Really I did.
Tonight Carrie had a class to attend and rather then driving home and coming back, wasting gas in order to be home for an hour, I stayed in the car and waited. I turned on the local sports radio channel as usual and prepared myself to be annoyed [...]

With respect to the Colorado Rockies and their crazy 21-of-22 wins I don’t see how anyone is going to stop this Boston Red Sox team. The Rockies are pretty much bringing one starter into this battle and in that start he will undoubtly get squashed by the beast that is Josh Beckett.
Ubaldo Jimenez, a rookie [...]

Seth Smith went to college at Ole Miss on a football scholarship. However Smith never took a snap in three seasons due to the presence of Eli Manning.

The Colorado Rockies are doing something against the norm. Of course losing one game in nearly three weeks isn’t exactly normal either.
After Jeff Francis pitches the first game of the series in Arizona, Colorado will turn things over to two guys with a combined 26 big league starts. (That’s counting their outings against the Philadelphia [...]
