The Rockies lost five games in a row heading into Wednesday’s matchup against the San Diego Padres (which they narrowly won 5-4). During the 5-game losing streak, all against divisional opponents, the Colorado has been looking a lot like its 2014 self. The Rockies have hit decently, but bad pitching has derailed their efforts to win.
Colorado was the most lopsided team in Major League Baseball last season. As a team it hit tremendously, but from the pitching side of the equation the Rox were awful. It came as no surprise that they only won 66 games last year.
The equation for success is the same in 2015.
