Affected by Altitude: A Postmortem for the 2019 Colorado Rockies

The Rockies ended 2019 on a high note, getting a small taste of revenge in a sweep of the Brewers. But as Rockies’ fans start to look back at the season that was, the Brewers’ series seems like one of the few bright spots for a 91-loss team with high expectations.

In Episode 10 of Affected by Altitude, Sam, Ben, and Eric dissect why the Rockies failed to meet expectations. The hosts also take a look back at some of the bold predications they made in April, many of which didn’t seem that bold at the time but look silly now thanks to the brutal honesty of hindsight.
