Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
Webb's fastball
doesn’t seem that fast today. And according to Gameday, not much different than that change, either.
How fast is his sinker typically?
So far his FB is around 88 and up in the zone.
At full speed?
Around 93-94, if he’s keeping in control and not overthrowing.

I'll take that
a little small ball run scoring there…
Productive out...
I know Sabermetricians hate it, but that play just scored an RBI, and nothing else.
It's opening day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought RBI's were a wasted stat?
Just like Wins were a wasted stat? Yet Cooke’s scoring runs to help his W column.
It's opening day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hopefully this year will confirm my theory....

Without the first run the Rocks are only up by 1.

Yes, you're right...

It's opening day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Webb’s headaches: Brad Hawpe (.340, 4 HR, 13 RBI) and Todd Helton (.271, 3 HR, 9 RBI).

Love me some 2-out runs.
We didn’t get enough of those last year.

is looking like Coors Field circa 1999.
Man...our offense is nothing without Holliday
especially against an elite pitcher like Webb.
Now if only Cook could settle down. At least Young is on my fantasy team

I remember there was a stretch of a few seasons where it seemed like every time we played the Cubs something totally bizarre would happen.
Probably.

Um, I mean the ninth…..14-11 Rox.

It's insane.
It’s how Opening Day should be. Batshit crazy things happening every half inning. Good pitchers getting blown up, worse pitchers suffering the same fate, fans oohing and awwing at ball put in play. It’s Opening Day! Win or lose, this is fun!
True
At least it’s not boring! It’s one of those games where you fully expect the current score to be wildly different by the end of the game.
WTF IS GOING ON??
FIRST LOPEZ, NOW CLARK WITH A HR FROM EITHER SIDE OF THE PLATE…..

All beer commercials are brutal
Cheesy gimmicks all over the place. Coors Light’s “mountain” that lets you know when it’s cold is the dumbest idea I have ever heard of. If you touch your beer bottle/can, and it feels cold… the beer is cold, genius.
And actually, Colorado's mountains look blue in the summer
You know, when it’s hot out.

Almost as smart as touting the “drinkability” of Bud Light. Those commercials are actually sort of funny, but I’ve yet to encounter a beer that was difficult to drink.

I’ve always liked the guy and I’m jazzed to finally see him in our bullpen, but it’s been long enough since I last saw him that I guess I just forgot that the dude has arms and legs going all over the place.

Though apparently Chris Snyder and Felipe Lopez both love and hate 4-seam fastballs. So take their scouting reports with a grain of salt.

But NOT with Helton, Hawpe, or the catchers. It’s just not smart.

It also looked like he a duck walk going on. I was impressed at his…repertoire.
