Saunders: Rockies' offense won't win enough games at home

I've gotten into a bad habit.

I realized that Friday night as I watched waves of rain and hail swamp Coors Field, again.

Right-hander Eddie Butler was already done for the night, having given up six runs on a career-high 11 hits in a mere 5 innings. Included in the onslaught was a 478-foot homer by Miami Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton that took off like a jet from DIA.

Of course, I immediately started focusing on the struggles of yet another Rockies starting pitcher. The rotation's ERA is 4.95, and only the Milwaukee Brewers' 5.06 ERA is worse.
