On Thursday, the Colorado Rockies crushed the Arizona Diamondbacks who, a few days ago, were legitimate contenders in the National League West. Two very real contenders for the NL MVP had big days with home runs … yet most of the odds and projections would still have the Dodgers surpassing this red-hot Rockies team and the Rockies standing only a decent chance of making the playoffs.
I disagree as I’ve previously stated and I hope the Rockies do too. A lineup that was getting by on a few bats has suddenly come to life from top to bottom.
