Rockies’ Offense vs Lorenzen’s Struggles

The Rockies are riding a 23-run explosion into a brutal Cubs series, but their 27-45 record and 3-7 stretch show they’re still in rebuilding mode. Michael Lorenzen, with a 2-8, 7.54 ERA, takes the mound against a .500 Cubs team — a tough matchup for a bullpen still missing key arms. Manager Schaeffer’s lineup shuffle targets Imanaga, with Hunter Goodman’s 20 homers and returning Tyler Freeman offering offensive hope. Injuries linger — Moniak and Dollander may need surgery — but bullpen reinforcements like Vodnik and Herget could be coming soon. Can offense carry them past a tough test?
