With the Rockies three to one victory, the latest in our second four game win streak of the season, the Rockies have started the road trip five and two and are now ten and three overall on the road this season. Today's win was the result largely of a strong season debut by Byung Hyun Kim, and if the early indications are correct, it looks like the Rockies have a solid five man rotation for the first time this year.
Coming up next is a tricky -but short- two game set in Atlanta. The Braves are coming off a hard series with the Mets in which they weren't able to hold home court, and will be looking for some measure of redemption with the Turner Field fans when we come to town.
Here are the Win Probability charts from fangraphs. com for the first two games of the series, I'll put up the third when it comes up later. You'll note, besides the steady influence of the bullpen, the way that the whole team is contributing. Garrett Atkins and Brad Hape have off days, Clint Barmes and Cory Sullivan are there to pick up the slack. It's nice to be seeing contributions coming from everywhere.
