Baseball is back, baby! Pitchers and catchers reported last Thursday; everyone else reported on Tuesday; and today marks the first official game of the 2025 season. The Rockies will look to improve on their 61-101 record from a year ago, and they will face an Arizona Diamondbacks team who is looking to rebound from a missed playoff opportunity following a World Series appearance in 2023. How will the Rockies look in 2025?
Bradley Blalock will take the mound for the Colorado Rockies against the Snakes. Blalock, 24, came to the Rockies from the Milwaukee Brewers in the Nick Mears trade and made his MLB debut on June 20, 2024.
