At the all-star break, the Rockies are 34-57 and on pace to finish 61-101. Denver Post beat writers Patrick Saunders and Kyle Newman debate the importance of Colorado’s historically bad trajectory.
Saunders: As you might guess, the idea of a 100-loss season is not a popular topic in the Rockies clubhouse. As someone said to me over the weekend in San Francisco, “Why do you keep writing that we’re on track for 100 losses? Do you really have to do that?” Well, given that the Rockies have never hit that dubious milestone, I think it’s newsworthy to track.
