This week, Skyler and Evan discuss the departure of left-handed pitcher Austin Gomber, the final piece of the Nolan Arenado trade, from the Colorado Rockies after a brutal 2025.

This week, Evan and Skyler discuss the Savannah Bananas coming to town, Skyler's annual ballpark trek to Coors Field, and the gulf of difference between the two.

Finally, we discuss the somewhat dire state of the Rockies' rotation in the immediate future.

This week, Skyler and Evan nurse their wounds from a pretty brutal week of Colorado Rockies baseball. Multiple season-ending injuries, a thorough stomping by the Toronto Blue Jays, and a losing streak that has history back in sight took away the buzz of the mostly pretty fun Pirates series. On the bright side, we have Warming Bernabel and Kyle Karros impressing us at the big league level and making us proud.

The first half of the 2025 Colorado Rockies season is finally, mercifully over. The Rockies finish the half with the most losses before the All-Star break in the modern era, and a whole messy bunch of things to be worried about when it comes to the future of the organization. However, Skyler and Evan are prepared for a much needed Holliday after all of that, and the Rockies were happy to oblige in the first round of the draft with the fourth overall pick!

Finally, the Washington Nationals surprised everyone by firing their manager and general manager only one week before the draft. What lesson should the Rockies take away from that?

This week, Evan and Skyler are back to discuss the Colorado Rockies playing some arguably solid baseball in month of June. Hanging tough in games, winning a few, taking better at-bats, and hitting more home runs, the Rockies have been watchable and even kind of fun compared to April and May. How much of this can be attributed to Warren Schaeffer taking over for Bud Black? We finish things out by discussing comments from within the organization, such as those from Charlie Monfort, and how the Rockies need to keep learning and changing.
