No more Lopezes, spiting my predictions,
No more of Stewart's hitting afflictions,
No more Spill the Beans,
No more Street closings.
No more Ubaldo, which makes me sad,
but more Pomeranz, which is kind of rad.
No more pitchers ringing up the score,
But no more CDI, ringing up the WAR.
No more Tracy?
No... more Tracy.
Sigh.
No more Seth not hitting southpaws,
But perhaps Casey Blake, with an out-clause.
More Tulo, more Cargo, more Arenado,
Less Punto, less Cardinals, more Colorado
No more Wiggy, no more chokes,
No more "versatility", that's all folks.

I agree. No more of the players that don’t improve the team.
That being said, why did you guys waste all the time with the “2011 player review” for all the players that were no longer on the team. For the most part, they were nothing more than cast-offs anyway, so who cares what they did. They sucked, and they got what they deserved…
The oxen are slow, but the earth is patient.
Off season is long ...
And coming up with Rockpile ideas can’t be easy day after day after day ….

It can't
be all that easy during the season either. They do a great job here.

we aren't done with player reviews, just because it is 2012
and even players who sucked have interesting storylines.

Actually,
I was at my peak via mobileness in 2010.
And I’ve grown quite used to it, too used to it, maybe.

my home internet connection is schizo
mkorpal understands. it lost connection several times, and apparently, each time I refreshed, it published for some reason.

Dear Rockies,
That orange and blue team in this town has won a division title in 2012.
Please do the same.

I don’t really care how it happens. I’d take a championship in any way.

or they just beat themselves.
48 today, 47 tomorrow is how many days remain until Pitchers and Catchers report for Spring Training.
Self taught and falling in love with this game is very easy to do, you can never hate it, and that is something that not one person can take away from anybody. The love of baseball and OUR COLORADO ROCKIES. 2011-we shall never see you again. 2012-World Series Champions.
I doubt 81-81 wins the NL West...
Jason Giambi for player-manager in 2012!
How the world will end in 2012: George of the Roses builds a Machine that Pommels everyone with La Violencia during Whiteouts.
82-80 did, once.
