Carlos Gonzalez going nuclear, and other Rockies getting healthy

Vintage CarGo racking up the hits - Rockies.com

Carlos Gonzalez blasted another two home runs last night, bringing him up to 35 for the season, a career high. All this after a miserable April and June, too.

Chatwood throws, won't play for the Rox in 2015 - Rockies.com

It's easy to forget that Tyler Chatwood will be in the starting pitching mix next season after he completes his recovery from Tommy John. Remember that pretty awesome 2013 he had? It's not guaranteed he'll duplicate it--probably not even likely--but it's important to have a bunch of guys around with the potential to help.

Also in that article is a note that Corey Dickerson played a rehab game in Triple-A last night, going 1-4. Hopefully he gets a few games at the major league level in before the season ends.
