Episode Details

Michael Lorenzen has been a bit unlucky when you break down the numbers. BABIP, xSLG and a few other statistics suggest he hasn't been quite as bad as his 6.92 ERA would suggest. Is he ready to turn a corner on Tuesday against Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates?

When the breaking news of a two-time NL Gold Glove Award winner was getting traded on Saturday, there was a split second where Brenton Doyle was no longer a Rockie. However, it was Patrick Bailey of the San Francisco Giants who was traded to the Cleveland Guardians. In exchange, the Giants fortified their 2026 draft with the 29th pick this July. Could we see Colorado do something similar?

Plus, a few unfamiliar names are worth watching in the Pirates series and the Rockies move out of the Power Rankings basement (for now).
