The Colorado Rockies are 20-15. It hasn’t always been pretty, but those wins are in the bank, and the Rockies hopes of contention are alive and well. The Rockies, however, will need to make some considerable improvements if they want to keep those hopes alive through the rest of the season, and almost all of those improvements are on the offensive side.
While the Rockies starting and relief pitchers have had a few issues and hiccups in the first month, their overall bodies of work have been the main driver behind the Rockies’ success. The starting pitchers’ performances have also been trending in a positive direction, and their performance on the recently completed road trip was dominating and almost the sole reason they went 6-3 and have a five-game winning streak.
