Forget about Colorado’s goal of turning a corner in 2025. The new reality for the Rockies? Avoid 104 losses.
The Rockies were shut out for the first five innings of a 5-3 defeat to the defending World Series champion Dodgers on Monday in Los Angeles, cementing a club record with 32 straight innings without scoring. An RBI double by Kyle Farmer — Colorado’s best hitter by far in a dismal season to date — finally snapped the skid in the sixth inning.
But besides that and a late homer by Hunter Goodman, it was bad business as usual for a team looking like it could easily top not only its 101-loss season from last year, but also the franchise-worst 103-loss season from 2023.
