Can the Rockies Keep This Going?
Episode 116 of the Rockies Now Podcast dives into a surprisingly competitive start for Colorado, as the team sits at 14–18 and within striking distance in the NL West. Tom and Sarah break down the optimism surrounding this year’s squad while still addressing key concerns—particularly missed opportunities with runners in scoring position that continue to hold the offense back. The duo recaps a strong series sweep over the Mets, highlighting standout performances from Chase Dollander, who delivered a dominant seven shutout innings, and Hunter Goodman, whose power surge continues to impress. They also analyze the series against the Reds, emphasizing both encouraging signs and lingering inconsistencies, especially from the pitching staff and situational hitting. Beyond game recaps, the conversation shifts to broader roster implications, including rising bullpen arms like Antonio Senzatela and Brennan Bernardino, as well as concerns around struggling hitters like Ezequiel Tovar. The hosts also explore potential future roster decisions, including trade possibilities and emerging talent in Triple-A pushing for opportunities. Looking ahead, they preview a challenging homestand against the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets, discussing key pitching matchups and what it will take for Colorado to continue building momentum. With improved team chemistry, better pitching results, and flashes of offensive firepower, the big question remains: can the Rockies sustain this level of play and turn early promise into long-term success?
