"although in the near-future, MLB is rumored to be looking into the possibility of teams and their local broadcasters cutting deals with cable/satellite providers to permit in-market streaming."

"If you love the Colorado Rockies movement, you can begin to enjoy the Colorado Rockies Carlos Gonzalez jersey. If you like the Carlos Gonzalez player, you can put on the same Carlos Gonzalez jersey with him and cheer for him. Put on the authentic Carlos Gonzalez jersey! Grateful to those that looked down on you and made you lead a wonderful life.I believe that each Colorado Rockies Carlos Gonzalez jersey here all will give you unexpected feelings."

@TroyRenck: Heard that the Salt River River Rafters will receive recognition for AFL championship today. Includes: Arenado, Wheeler, Scahill, Frazier, Paulsen, Gardner.

Jeremy Guthrie, your 2012 Opening Day Starting Pitcher

I'm going to start reading more books about baseball but I don't know where to start. Can you give me a list of your "must reads" in the baseball world? Thanks

[Juan Nicasio] had surgery on his C-1 vertebrae this morning and is resting comfortably. More at 3:30 PM today.

What's this? Bored? Nothing to do? All the new comments in the Rockpile read? Well, I have an activity for you:

Text "N2" to 89269 and Vote for Todd Helton as the Final Vote, or click for Todd Helton in the 2011 All Star Game.

If Chipper Jones gets selected out of respect, Todd Helton has earned just as much if not more, and deserves this ASG selection.

I am posting a baseball quote of the day every day until I run out of quotes (which could take a while) but a lot of the quotes I have are old. If you have quotes from more recent times about baseball or by baseball players please post them here or e-mail them to me so I can add them to my list. Thanks.

In the post-game thread from Saturday's victory, Rutabaga asked how many 1-hitters there have been in Denver, ever. I was curious and did a little research on BB-Ref's Play Index and found out.

Since 1993 there have been three individual 1-hitters, all of them thrown by non-Rockies. They are?

Jose Rijo (CIN) - 9/25/93
Pat Rapp (FLA) - 9/17/95
Roy Oswalt (HOU) - 9/6/08

Interesting that all of them occurred in September.

While Texas’ front office continues to check the trade market for Michael Young, the Rangers back out every time it appears a deal could be close.

They went so far in talks with Colorado that Rockies prospect Eric Young actually underwent a physical and then the Rangers brought up a stress fracture in his right tibia suffered last May and was well-documented, and ended the trade talks.
