DENVER – The Colorado Rockies are playing host to the Chicago Cubs this week. The Cubs enter as the reigning World Series Champions with a 16-15 record while the Rockies are streaking at 20-12. Maybe call it a youthful foolishness but the young Colorado club is not scared of the Cubs, their fans or anything they could bring with it.
The best news for the Rockies is that the Cubs come off of a series where they got swept at home their bullpen got obliterated due to an injury to one of their starters—Brett Anderson—and an 18 inning game.
