Purple Row Prediction Competition: Week 10

by Jeff Aberle on Jun 5, 2011 5:02 PM MDT

Here is how the scoring works for the uninitiated. The Rockies are playing seven division games this week: three in San Diego and four at home against the Dodgers. Here are this week's pitching matchups. It looks like Clayton Mortensen and Ubaldo Jimenez will be two-start guys this week, though it depends on if the Rockies keep up Juan Nicasio or Mortensen when Aaron Cook makes his 2011 debut on Wednesday.

Hows this for a crazy prediction

The Rockies will have a game where they score more then 1 run.

It's Jim Tracy's Fault.

I hope they can at least win on my birthday Saturday night

CP: They will breakout and score at least 8 runs on my birthday….

….and score 4 or less the other 6 games in route to another disappointing 2-5 3-4 type of week…sigh

LETS GO RED WINGS!

2011 will be the year....better be....
