Renck: Ryan McMahon’s speech shows Rockies players care. Too bad owner doesn’t.

Sloths show more urgency than the Rockies.

On a sun-splashed Thursday at Coors Field, with fans’ growing apathy reflected in the 18,593 paid attendance, they toppled the Brewers 7-2.

It was a victory that masked the ugliness of the first month.

Losing the first two home series of the season should qualify as shameful. For the Rockies, this is normal, the 3-9 start fitting in with a 3-9 mark last year and a 20-loss April in 2023.

That alone is reason to remain disgusted with this team. But worse, the Rockies possess a quality that most professional organizations avoid like gas station sushi: They make players soft.
