Tuesday Morning Rockpile:

Exchange a word in the above caption and that would have helped last night.

Jeff Francis admitted he "made bad pitches" and that he has no idea how to solve his first inning problems.

"I write things down in pencil," Rockies pitching coach Bob Apodaca said. - From Jim Armstrong's column on how bizarre a season the Rockies have had so far. Apodaca also said the team was fortunate for having a Plan B. . . .

Ramon Ramirez received his championship ring before yesterday's game, and Glendon Rusch and Mark Redman appear to be receiving more attention than others for another stint with the Rockies.

It is with great pleasure that I present The 2008 Jake Plummer Memorial Award for Crappy Performance by a Player on a Team with Preseason Championship Aspirations goes to…......JEFF FRANCIS

From Jeff after recieveing the award

“Thank you, Thank you…..it’s quite an honor, as the competition for this award was fierce. Todd Helton, Brad Hawpe, Manny Corpas, and even Willie T, all wanted this award and did their worst to win it. I’m just lucky to play for a team and and organization that puts no pressure or expectations on us players. Remember, July 5th is Matt Holliday bobble head night, and the 1st Tuesday home game is $1 Hot Dog night, so you fans have reasons to come out to Coors Field this summer”

I'll be there Jeff!

The excitement of the bobble-heads are much more exciting than the players themselves!
