Sugano’s Rocky Rise and Adjustments | Colorado Rockies News

Tomoyuki Sugano, Japan’s pitching veteran, made a bold leap to MLB last year with the Rockies, chasing experience and avoiding future regrets—advising himself with stars like Darvish and Maeda. Though his debut season was rocky—leading the league in homers allowed and struggling late—he’s rebounded strongly in 2026, posting a 12-7 record through 23 starts. Adjusting to Denver’s altitude? He’s nailed it, staying consistent at home and on the road. Beyond stats, he’s soaking up life in Colorado, even snagging a pricey turkey leg at an amusement park. His goal? Win as many games as possible this season—and while his future’s uncertain, he’s already become a steady anchor for the Rockies.
