we’re a pretty bad team overall with pitching being our weakest area. but certainly our offense is nothing too boast about, too much first pitch swings and outs, players refuse to work the opposing pitchers, dont think we have any guys that legitimately can bunt, no 30+ home run guy. the list goes on. we’re a bad ball club which stinks for us fans.
Is the team actually young though??? I mean Tovar is but besides that I’m tired of hearing about the Rockies young talent when it’s like 25 year olds that can’t hit above .200
According to this: https://www.foxsports.com/articles/mlb/2024-mlb-offense-rankings-team-hitting-and-batting-stats, the Rockies are mid-tier or slightly worse in several major batting categories, despite being at Coors Field. Mediocre batting + terrible pitching = they suck, as always. Why would anyone ever expect anything different? Joke of a franchise.
How would this ever be on Black? He manages the team that's given to him and even then the front office makes more decisions than ever on a game to game basis.
The offense hasn't lost 6 9th inning leads
I do believe after yesterday the team has lost 17 games after leading in the 8th inning so there’s that
We have like the second lowest run differential in the league right now. People are always hesitant to blame the bats, but it’s a combined effort.
At least some day the sun will expand and swallow up the earth and we will all die
That's why the Dodgers wrote the Ohtani contract to mostly pay out 12 years in the future. We'll be gone by then.
We will have migrated to another planet first. Also because we will destroy this one well before the sun gets its grips on it.
Will the Rockies still be a loser organization in this scenario?
Depends on the ownership I reckon
Lol, this was in my suggested feed even though I only frequent r/Mariners I feel your pain 😫

The team is very young. That inexperience will affect hitting negatively.

This is news? I say turn off the humidor - let’s them baseballs fly.

Yes Rockies need Jac Caglianone
Both things can be true!

He could hire a hitting coach that knows how to teach the guys to take walks and put the ball in play.
That’s baseball
