As Purple Row nears the end of its Ranking the Rockies series, counting down the team’s most valuable players by WAR (No. 2 and 1 will be published next week), it seems like a good time to dive into the team’s WAR, especially after back-to-back 100-loss seasons.

As a team, the Rockies finished 10.4 in rWAR, according to Baseball Reference, ahead of only the White Sox (6.8). The WAR matches their record of 61-101 (.377), which was also only better than the White Sox. Colorado’s pitching staff, starters and relievers, combined for 0.0, which was also No.
