    With the exception of Jeff Francis being good the rest of the rotation is just plain mediocre and you cannot rely on them from start to start.

    Cook has had two good performances in his last two starts , but before that there was 2 bad performances. Hirsch had 1 good performance in his last start on July 2nd, but prior to that he had 3 poor ones. It is just the consistency of the starts. When a starter can string together like 5 or more good performances in a row, Like say Jeremy Guthrie of the Orioles has done this season then you are getting somewhere.

    I really like this Rockies team. I think it is the best lineup since the Blake Street Bombers. Hopefully you guys can find a way to keep Helton.

    Anyhow, welcome rockiesfan4ever!

    I love Coors Fieldand go there quite a bit. Its the closest field to me so it is my home ballpark. Probably the nicest field I have ever seen too.

    Ubaldo Jimenez has impressed me. When Cook locates he wins, simple as that. When he doesn't he gets crushed. I HATE Josh Fogg. Rodrigo Lopez is a quality 2 when he is healthy. Consistancy, like you said, is the problem. But mediocre? I wouldn't go that far.

    Anyone looks good beating the Padres. Heck just think about this, Rockies could make the playoffs and knock out the Pads. 53-51 would not do much in the American league but with the NL West it could be a wildcard contender.

    You mean in the NL it's a wildcard contender?

    The NL West is the best division the NL has to offer.

    I mean, the 4th place team is a wild card contender....

    I'd argue it's the best division in the whole ML even including those damn Giants.

    First off, welcome to the site Bowzer.

    Second off, the NL West has made huge strides but I still don't know how it stacks up against the AL Central...the disparity between the AL and NL has closed this year but it's definitely still there. The Rockies are definitely on the upswing though which is good to see.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Thanks for the Welcomes.


    The NL West more than stacks up against the AL Central especially considering how the White Sox and Royals are playing this year. The Twins aren't up to their regular level (I see a big slump coming for them). The NL West offers 4 formidable teams (The Rockies are one of the hottest teams in baseball going 36-24 over their last 60 games). Now does that rule in the fact that the AL is a better overall league than the NL? Hell no. But I don't think the gap is that big.
