In general if you follow them they just make very few moves of any kind. When they’re completely out of it, they still rarely trade pending free agents to get some prospects and just let them expire instead (Story, Jon Gray to name a couple big ones). When they were actually pretty good in 2017/18, they did very little to meaningfully upgrade the roster and make a run.

They rarely sign free agents except Kris Bryant for some unknown reason. They almost never make trades from positions of strength to upgrade areas of need in their system. Not saying they need to be a Tampa or San Diego who are constantly doing this stuff but they operate like they aren’t allowed to make transactions
I think their fanbase has finally given up as whole this year which is sad. Because you’re absolutely right, they showed up quite well despite how bad to mediocre they’ve been for their entire history and Coors Field is a gem.

Rockies haven’t won a division championship in 32 years of existence. They’ve been to the playoffs 5 times total

Losing every day fricking sucks no matter what
Their problems run much deeper than spending. Awful, insular front office that has had very little turnover when you consider how little they’ve won historically
Damn he just missed hitting that out

UNC might be a tough pull, but I don’t think any of the others are. State is a premier baseball program in every way. I honestly think the Duke coach would be a great pull out of all those

For nearly 10 years I’ve watched this piece of shite get away with everything when he’s on one technical in a playoff game. It’s beyond egregious
Goat franchise logo is quite strong
Pena really does look to have turned a corner offensively this year. Hoping it sticks
Also took some decent sliders in that AB
Just please start being decent for an extended stretch
He also nailed the Jaxson Dart Giants trade (though I think he had it with Detroit instead of Houston, still impressive)

I have no idea what happened with McShay, but I still am a fan if you are looking for draft coverage. I totally get what you’re saying about him short circuiting, and it can be a little rough to listen to him at times, but his coverage is great and he doesn’t act like a total child if someone has a different take on a prospect than him in my experience
