The Colorado Rockies entered the All-Star break on a good note, going 7-3 in their last 10 games and 12-8 in their last 20. Over half of each of those segments were constituted by games against the Arizona Diamondbacks and Pittsburgh Pirates – teams deeper in the basement than Colorado – but wins are wins. Kris Bryant has returned from injury and shown well with a 160 wRC+ since his return.
Friday also marked the return of Antonio Senzatela, who missed most of July with a back strain. His return puts the Rockies at full-force for the first time this season, minus Tyler Kinley who went down for the season in early June.
