My friend "The Pittmeister" asked about attendance at Coors Field. Good question! Well there were 22,000 in attendance which is pretty low for a professional baseball game. While it was a cold and very windy night, and it was a weeknight, (excuses excuses), the fact is the Rockies product isn't really very good. In fact, the fans are abandoning them in droves. The fans will turn out for the Yankees or the Dodgers, but not to see the Rocks play the Astros. The result is, half the fans who are there will cheer for the wrong flippin' team!! That's no fun.
Having said all this, the Rocks have won 11 of their last 16 games, pretty good I'd say. And, they're no longer on the bottom, San Francisco is. I really like that fact. Most fans will say I'm just an optimist and they'll eventually let me down. Could be. You see, they're trying to build their team cheaply, they refuse to pay for good players. And maybe that's not a bad thing. One side of me applauds them for it, and the other says, "but they could be so much better." On the rare occasions when they have paid big bucks for someone, it's turned out poorly...pitchers with bad arms and hitters who can't hit. Go Broncos!!
