Sunday Morning Rockpile:
Being sick yesterday and not really paying attention to the game, I didn't know that Matt Holliday injured his left hamstring while running to first in the bottom of the ninth. There's speculation Cory Sullivan did not play for the Sky Sox last night because the Rockies may activate him. Another injury, just what we need
As the FanPost to the right pointed out, Aaron Cook will take the mound today in place of Jorge De La Rosa:
"It was to get [Cook] every opportunity to maintain the momentum he had established during the second half of [Tuesday's 6-5 loss the Giants]," Hurdle said. "And it will give De La Rosa one more opportunity to work on the side with Bob [Apodaca, the Rockies' pitching coach]."
The last time Cook faced the Mets at home was on July 3, 2007. The Rockies won 11-3 against Justin Vargas. Ryan Spilborghs had a grand slam, and Cook allowed only three runs in 8 IP. It may be a tall order for the offense to score 11 runs today, but eight innings out of Cook should be doable.
Woody Paige ponders the fate of Clint Hurdle, while three guys discuss the Rockies and a possible breakup of the team come July. Or something.

Ohhh boy.
What is with us and injuries? Is Holliday supposed to be out for a good length of time?Sheeesh…though maybe the Sky Sox playing as the Rockies may do better. We hope.

He's listed
as day-to-day. I’d say he’ll be kept out of today’s game.

Well. As Matt himself said, “Don’t feel sorry for us.” I don’t think I do, I just despair about the state of this team. Last summer was so incredibly fun when they were good….this year it’s been ridiculously hard to find other things to focus on. I would really like to have the Rockies as a big part of my summer…and good. But we’ll just see, I guess.

hey
hey, aTwins fan here
Remember Matt Macri. Yeah, he was traded for Ramon Ortiz last yar. Well, due to about a 1000 injuries on the Twins squad he got called up the other day and started the debacle yesterday (19-3 loss to the Tigers) but he played pretty well. Made a few good plays at 3, got his first big league hit, stolen base, and RBI.
just thought you should know. now go beat the Mets this afternoon!
