The Colorado Rockies have six games left with the Los Angeles Dodgers and seven games left with the Arizona Diamondbacks in the last 25 games to finish the season. That makes those games paramount to the Rockies’ playoff chances.
Of course, the Rockies must first take this current series against the San Francisco Giants … and then they get seven straight all-important games at Coors Field against National League West division opponents. That’s the stuff only big market teams often get to watch in September. This year, it’s in Denver.
Colorado’s offense is heating up this month with Nolan Arenado due for an MVP-caliber bounce back from his recent road trip struggles.
