Colorado Rockies - Week 16

A 4-3 week and a 5-5 roadtrip for the Roxs as they prepare to do battle against their division rivals. Still comfortably in 4th place, 5.5 out of first and 3.5 out of the wild card race. The Roxs currently stand at 49 - 49. Currently 26-19 at home and 23-30 on the road, the Roxs have been outscored 470-475 (expected wins is 49 versus historical wins at 45). On pace for 81 wins. Well they didn't bury themselves which is good. A good sweep in Pittsburgh but then lose 3 in DC? Come on and to get goose eggs on two of those loses. Did we forget that runs are needed to win? Well if the Roxs look back at this season and they miss out on a few games then they will look back at their 8-8 record against the Reds, Nats, D-Rays, and Royals and say there is at least 4 wins they gave away. For the Roxs to start looking like a playoff contender then they have got to win series against the worst teams. Someone once said, every team wins and loses 60 games it is what they do with those 42 that count. Right now the Roxs aren't winning those 42! Some other interesting items...since O'Dowd became GM every team in the NL West has been to the playoffs twice...hmmmmmm except for us. And we signed him for an extension why? Let's see his magic this week...Farnsworth ain't the answer...how bout another bat.
