San Francisco Giants @ Colorado Rockies
There are a lot of people who for some reason find it worth there while to spend time and thought on the Rockies. Obviously, some of us spend an amount that tips us well into the crazy column. But the type of people who I never clearly understood would give much time at all to the team, but for some reason will anyway, are those that see absolutely nothing good with the franchise, regardless of what happens.
These people will quickly write off success as a fluke, a one time deal, but then wholly buy into any and every negative narrative of the team and then seem most happy and boisterous when the Rockies are losing. I appreciate thoughtful criticism that actually explores how the team needs to get better, and I'm not talking about that, even if it leans negative, as there's usually a constructive element that goes along with it. Instead, I'm talking about people whose basic understanding of the game is so rudimentary that they should instinctively know their poseurs and should therefore keep quiet if they want to seem even half way intelligent. Instead, they still feel the need to just say something for the inflammatory effect. For instance, read the comments at Drew Litton's cartoon today.
One characteristic that will instantly alert me that an argument lacks the savvy I'm looking for is laying total blame for the first third of the season on the pitching staff, when it should mostly be shouldered by the offense. Any and every contemporary baseball fan should know about park effects by now, unless they're twelve years old.
Here's a current ranking of the NL teams by ERA+:
- Arizona 127
- Chicago 120
- Atlanta 114
- Philadelphia 108
- New York 106
- Los Angeles 105
- St. Louis 104
- Colorado 98
- Cincinnati 97
- Houston 96
- San Francisco 95
- Florida 94
- Washington 94
- San Diego 91
- Milwaukee 91
- Pittsburgh 84
Granted, we are a whole lot closer to the bottom than the top in this, and I'm not saying that more can't be done to fix the staff, but still the eighth place pitching staff in the NL isn't nearly as big a problem for us as the fourth to the worst offense in the league.
OPS+:
- Chicago 116
- Atlanta 115
- Florida 113
- St. Louis 112
- Arizona 105
- Houston 102
- Philadelphia 102
- New York 101
- Cincinnati 101
- Los Angeles 96
- Pittsburgh 95
- Milwaukee 92
- Colorado 91
- San Francisco 88
- San Diego 83
- Washington 79
Alright, sorry for the rant.
There are just three teams that rank below the Rockies in both ERA+ and OPS+ categories, the Padres, the Nationals, and tonight's opponent, the Giants. The Rockies better well keep it that way, at least in regards to our current opponent. Feel free to move up on the rest of the league anytime, boys.
Go Rockies!

On a side note
The Giants have never, ever won a game started by Pat Misch. Let’s keep that going tonight.

About that fluke
I agree with your premise, RoxGirl. We’ve heard last season’s 21 of 22 being labeled as a “fluke” a lot recently; I don’t buy it. The Rockies did it, didn’t they? My dictionary defines fluke as an accidental success or a stroke of luck.. I’m an old believer in if you can do it, it ain’t luck. The 21 of 22 was not to be taken that the Rockies had permanently arrived as an elite team as some would suggest.
Another note on the rankings front…Colorado Rockies are back in their usual spot atop MLB in fielding percentage and fewest errors committed. Good D is always a great asset to have.

I also don't think it was a fluke
In our last 118 (regular season) games last year, we were 26 games over .500 (72-46). 120 games doesn’t qualify as a fluke.
I rest my case.
Every day is a Holliday!

OK Rox,
It’s the Rockhead’s birthday, and in addition to all the other good things that have come his way today, he would like to finish the day with a Rockies winner. No pressure or anything. But I know people who know people…..
OK, yeah right. Just win this one for your Rockhead!

DLR's dropped his ERA by nearly half a run this game.
That’s got to count for something.
No seriously, if he can get through three more innings with just another run or two given up, I think we’ve got to take that from a fifth starter. Just one walk, three hits after three, that’s not terrible. Terrible is our offense still, which can’t give him diddly.

Did anyone read this today:
http://sports.espn.go.com/chat/chatESPN?event_id=20689&lpos=spotlight&lid=tab2pos1
Stark’s chat about which league is better. Obviously as an NL guy I’m biased here. STark makes the good point that most of the young talent is in the NL. Although the Red Sox sure looked like they were a different class in the World Series last year.

My least favorite part:
“The NL has the Nationals, Giants and Padres. And the Rockies (17-27) are threatening to join that group”
Not the type of comment I usually expect to see from someone like Stark.

Summer Vacation..
So I figured out where I want to go on my summer vacation this year. 6 games, 5 stadiums, 4 cities in 6 days. If only I can figure out a way to talk my wife into letting me go.
August 15, Washington DC – Rockies against the Nats
August 16, Washington DC – Rockies against the Nats
August 17, NYC – KC at the Evil Empire in the final season of Ruth’s House.
August 18, Baltimore – BooSox vs Orioles in Camden
August 19, NYC – Atlanta at Shea
August 20, Philly – Nats at the smallest ballpark east of the Ohio River (Chase Utley Bobblehead day)

Barmes' defense is overinflated here
Barmes does an excellent job of making routine plays. Barmes does not make tough plays. His RZR would place him in the bottom half of shortstops, but close to average overall. Tulo’s RZR and OOZ (out of zone) plays are off the charts, and his RZR would still be in the elite class of shortstops.

All years
Barmes best trait at short is that he doesn’t make bad mistakes. His throwing mechanics tend to make every play look like he was on the move, rather than stationary, and he shades himself more up the middle to take away hits up there. He probably does this too because he does not make the play in the hole that often. While that’s only one part of the defensive responsibilities, it’s a fairly significant one.
For years numbers have indicated that Barmes is a solid average shortstop, this year isn’t much different. That isn’t at all bad, but people look at error numbers and just think they mean something…they don’t.

Booggetty, Boogetty….OH Yes they call it a streak!
And only 9 more and we will be at .500….that right…we win out the month of May….and we still won’t be at ..500
But I’ll enjoy a streak of 3!

Woo!
9 games under .500 is better than 10! I guess!
Seriously, if we can keep this up and have no more 6-7 game losing streaks, I am hopeful.

Unearned run
so I wasn’t even going to call him “Gas Grilli”, which I think works better than Gas Can when he’s being charred.

actually
Gas Can hasn’t really been a Gas Can for us….he’s an ok middle reliever…..makes me nervous as hell, but don’t most middle relievers?

Signs of life
1. Barmes is heating it up like Tulo did last year.
2. Buchholz is solidifying the bullpen.
3. De la Rosa and Reynolds may provide 2 desperately-needed starters. That’s how you avoid losing streaks … not depending on 1 guy to stop them
Things are looking up.

Plus Francis got his first win yesterday...
Hirsch is getting healthy and so is the Viz, well at least I think that’s a good sign.
