Ok so they just lost 12-4 to the Phillies, but they had one hell of a series in Philly. NOBODY ever expected the rockies to be in the thick of it this late in the year. I must say that I think that they are going to fall short of the playoffs, but DAMN this was one hell of a year.

I remember at the beginning of the year, all the news people and ESPN analysts didn't give the Rockies a shot for anything. Basically they were saying that the Rockies will again be in the basement in the NL. WRONG! So maybe home grown talent isn't so bad!

The pitching is what has surprised me the most. We actually have consistent pitchers (thank god for Jeff Francis!) and our offense has finally been helped. Gone are the days of the 20-19 Rockies win, where no pitcher could get anyone out!

I'd like to say this. THANK YOU TO THE ROCKIES! You have made baseball interesting in Colorado again. Keep it up and you guys are rocking the house! AND who knows maybe you can turn heads in the NL and try to become the Wild Card!
