Returning to the scene of one of the most dominant starts of his inaugural season, Jeff Francis tries to get his groove back. Where did things go wrong? Who knows, but his August stat line is abysmal, four starts, eighteen innings, thirty-six hits, twenty-four runs. Yeah, when you're allowing twelve runs per nine, you aren't going to last long in this league. We definitely need him to come back strong before the clammering blares of the national media start bemoaning another promising pitcher ruined by Coors Field.
Go Rockies!
