*UPDATE

The odds of the Rockies making the post-season have improved from a flatlined 1.5% a few days after Clint Hurdle was fired to a season high of 64.7% through Monday. The skyrocket in flight has given Rockies nation many afternoon delights, causing fans to dust off the old bandwagon. Colorado lead the NL in walks and walks allowed, but fans are running through the gates to catch a glimpse of the Wild Card leading Rockies.

FWHEEE!

haha Woodys columns are good comedic relief but its hard to ever take him seriously, and even though its great watching him on ATH because he makes it funny, he is the one everybody else rags on 247

Great work as always, Charlie!

I can't believe nobody has picked Fwheee!

I mean the Rockies are now tabbed as the mighty beanstalkers!! What does that mean? They stay up late at night and watch the beans through binoculars?
