Mile High Territory

“I’m not gonna sit here and sell that on this day, after the season when you went, what, 8-29 to end the year.” @TroyRenck saw progress from the Rockies, but understands why that’s a tough sell after their finish.

“Goodman is a piece you build around.” Hunter Goodman hit 25 of his 41 home runs on the road, and @TroyRenck says that should put the “Coors Field creation” argument to rest.

“He’s everything they’re trying to preach offensively.” @SpillyGoat19 thinks TJ Rumfield deserves more recognition in the NL Rookie of the Year race after his historic season at the plate.

What exactly do the Rockies need in a starting pitcher?

Gabriel Hughes' cutter is legit, and the Rockies know it. "I think it's important to note that the Rockies lined this up for Gabriel Hughes to use his cutter at Coors Field."

"You have to have that edge." @SpillyGoat19 explains why the Rockies need someone who plays with a fire like Cole Carrigg.

"This version of the Rockies is starting to get some respect around the league." @SpillyGoat19 is starting to see a whole new Rockies team not just from the players, but from the fans.

Brett Sullivan has become one of the most important voices in the clubhouse, and he was the one who told Hunter Goodman he was going to the All-Star Game. "Brett calls everybody in, says exactly what the guy did, and then the whole team goes crazy."

Hunter Goodman has 18 home runs on the road this season. When will everyone stop blaming Coors Field and start giving Rockies hitters the credit they deserve? "The ignorance over Coors Field got really old, post-humidor, there's other parks now that are very hitter friendly."

Every Fourth of July, fans sneak into Coors Field and dump their loved ones' ashes on the grass. The problem is that the ashes burn right through it. "The grounds crew has to replace it. There's a burn mark."

There's finally a plan in the Rockies front office, says @TroyRenck. "This team is on pace to lose right around 100 games, and you'd think they're going to the playoffs with the enthusiasm people have."

"A position player should never be untouchable, unless you get somebody that's an MVP." @SpillyGoat19 feels position players should be the most expendable asset the Rockies have.

There's no reason to hold onto players that you can flip into one or multiple younger versions of what you're giving up, says @TroyRenck. "Making those trades is how you get better."
