    Jake McCarthy's 5 RBI game lets Rockies avoid Mets sweep in grand style - How hot is Ethan Holliday at the plate?

    Colorado was one Juan Soto at-bat away from being swept by the New York Mets and extending their losing streak to seven games. However, Brennan Bernardino did his job (and did it well) and Jake McCarthy continued to rake. Was his eighth-inning grand slam fair or foul? Concern over Ethan Holliday's debut over 18 games last year were overblown. Now, with his first offseason as a professional to tinker with his All-Star father (Matt) and big league brother (Jackson), Ethan is showing why he was selected 4th overall in the 2025 MLB Draft. How staggering has his improvement been so far this season? Plus, another minor league reliever signing for Colorado, Mickey Moniak's Hall of Fame company and another great start for Jose Quintana. 🎥WATCH LIVE 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/@TheRockiesInsider 🎧 LISTEN 🎧  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rockies-insider-with-patrick-lyons/id1762349675 https://open.spotify.com/show/2MVUbiBbDp3wM85z2yy0Ut ✏️WRITTEN ✏️ https://www.justbaseball.com/author/patrickdennislyons/ https://patrickdlyons.substack.com/ 🚨 SOCIAL MEDIA 🚨 https://x.com/Rockies_Insider https://x.com/PatrickDLyons https://www.threads.net/@rockies_insider https://www.threads.net/@patrickdlyonsmlb https://bsky.app/profile/rockiesinsider.bsky.social https://bsky.app/profile/patrickdlyons.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@patrickdlyonsmlb Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Rockies sign 2x All-Star closer: Do Colorado's new pitching coaches have more Antonio Senzatela magic?

    Colorado struck a minor league deal with two-time All-Star Jordan Romano this week. After saving four games with the Los Angeles Angels already this season, bringing his career total to 117 saves, Romano could become the latest reliever to find success in the Rockies bullpen. Can the new pitching coaches turn him around in the same way they did Antonio Senzatela? It was a cold one on Wednesday night in Denver. But was it the coldest this season? And why are Mets always in town for awful weather? Plus, Blake Snell gets pranked by his own organization, Mason Miller's history season and Rockies prospect Tanner Thach wins Player of the Month for the Low-A Fresno Grizzlies. 🎥WATCH LIVE 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/@TheRockiesInsider 🎧 LISTEN 🎧  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rockies-insider-with-patrick-lyons/id1762349675 https://open.spotify.com/show/2MVUbiBbDp3wM85z2yy0Ut ✏️WRITTEN ✏️ https://www.justbaseball.com/author/patrickdennislyons/ https://patrickdlyons.substack.com/ 🚨 SOCIAL MEDIA 🚨 https://x.com/Rockies_Insider https://x.com/PatrickDLyons https://www.threads.net/@rockies_insider https://www.threads.net/@patrickdlyonsmlb https://bsky.app/profile/rockiesinsider.bsky.social https://bsky.app/profile/patrickdlyons.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@patrickdlyonsmlb Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Tomoyuki Sugano or Mickey Moniak to fetch the biggest return at trade deadline? Cole Carrigg ready for prime time?

    Tomoyuki Sugano had no-hit stuff on Monday night and nearly matched a feat set only by Japanese Baseball Hall of Famer Hideo Nomo. Sugano, looking to be the first to throw a no-hitter for the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field, fell short of the no-no, but proved why he's been Paul DePodesta's best signing. Has the pitching been a strength for Colorado overall? Mickey Moniak continues to rake. Were it not for an IL stint to start the year, he would be tops in terms of OPS in the National League. Would trading Moniak makes sense for the Rockies? Or is he a piece for the future? Plus, winter weather hits Denver mid-Spring, Cole Carrigg wins PCL Player of the Week and Antonio Senzatela's remarkable season so far. 🎥WATCH LIVE 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/@TheRockiesInsider 🎧 LISTEN 🎧  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rockies-insider-with-patrick-lyons/id1762349675 https://open.spotify.com/show/2MVUbiBbDp3wM85z2yy0Ut ✏️WRITTEN ✏️ https://www.justbaseball.com/author/patrickdennislyons/ https://patrickdlyons.substack.com/ 🚨 SOCIAL MEDIA 🚨 https://x.com/Rockies_Insider https://x.com/PatrickDLyons https://www.threads.net/@rockies_insider https://www.threads.net/@patrickdlyonsmlb https://bsky.app/profile/rockiesinsider.bsky.social https://bsky.app/profile/patrickdlyons.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@patrickdlyonsmlb Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Does Colorado need to end the opener experiment? Why it makes sense to let Chase Dollander start in the 1st inning

    Chase Dollander quickly became a darling of baseball fans around the country looking for the next great young pitcher thanks to an outstanding month of April. His first start of the year produced seven scoreless innings on the road against the New York Mets. Yet, reliever Brennan Bernardino opened Saturday's contest with Atlanta. How'd he fare? Is Colorado doing more damage by not letting Dollander start the game? Walt Weiss managed the Rockies for four years and built the foundation for consecutive postseason clubs in 2017-18. How was his first return to Denver as a big league manager in decade turn out? Plus, why Mickey Moniak can't be found amongst the NL leaders on offense, the numbers behind Atlanta's staggering dominance over Colorado and an ABS loophole that doesn't need to be closed. 🎥WATCH LIVE 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/@TheRockiesInsider 🎧 LISTEN 🎧  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rockies-insider-with-patrick-lyons/id1762349675 https://open.spotify.com/show/2MVUbiBbDp3wM85z2yy0Ut ✏️WRITTEN ✏️ https://www.justbaseball.com/author/patrickdennislyons/ https://patrickdlyons.substack.com/ 🚨 SOCIAL MEDIA 🚨 https://x.com/Rockies_Insider https://x.com/PatrickDLyons https://www.threads.net/@rockies_insider https://www.threads.net/@patrickdlyonsmlb https://bsky.app/profile/rockiesinsider.bsky.social https://bsky.app/profile/patrickdlyons.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@patrickdlyonsmlb Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Are the Rockies really the 30th-best team in MLB? Where has ESPN gone wrong? And how egregious is this?

    Entering the day at 14-17, the Colorado Rockies had won more games in April (13) for the first time since April 2018, their last year going to the postseason. A winning road trip (4-2) and a spot as the 4th-place club in the National League West suggest everything is pointing upward. How close did they come to winning another road series on Thursday against the Cincinnati Reds? Despite this early success, ESPN still has the Rockies as the worst team in MLB. Why? And is it crazy to think that maybe Colorado deserves to be 30th still? What needs to happen in order to move out of the basement? Plus, previewing the Atlanta series, a favorable schedule coming up that could lead to another 4-2 road trip and Drew Romo haunts the Rockies. 🎥WATCH LIVE 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/@TheRockiesInsider 🎧 LISTEN 🎧  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rockies-insider-with-patrick-lyons/id1762349675 https://open.spotify.com/show/2MVUbiBbDp3wM85z2yy0Ut ✏️WRITTEN ✏️ https://www.justbaseball.com/author/patrickdennislyons/ https://patrickdlyons.substack.com/ 🚨 SOCIAL MEDIA 🚨 https://x.com/Rockies_Insider https://x.com/PatrickDLyons https://www.threads.net/@rockies_insider https://www.threads.net/@patrickdlyonsmlb https://bsky.app/profile/rockiesinsider.bsky.social https://bsky.app/profile/patrickdlyons.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@patrickdlyonsmlb Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Rockies SWEEP Mets in New York! First doubleheader sweep for Colorado since 2011 highlighted by Chase Dollander

    The Colorado Rockies of 2026 are nowhere near the Rox of 2025. Now sitting at 13-16 after a three-game sweep against the last-place New York Mets, including wins in both ends of a doubleheader on Sunday, Colorado feels nothing like the crew that nearly set an MLB record for most losses in a season. How else are things different from 2025? Chase Dollander is on another level. The 24-year-old has been on another level all season long, but in Game 2 against the Mets on Sunday he secured a place in the rotation and atop the mantle of baseball's favorite new young pitcher. How far has he come in such a short amount of time? Plus, Dinger gets rejected by Mrs. Met, Ryan Feltner goes to the IL and Bo Bichette fails to replicate his father's deeds on the 31st anniversary of Coors Field's first regular season game. 🎥WATCH LIVE 🎥 https://www.youtube.com/@TheRockiesInsider 🎧 LISTEN 🎧  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rockies-insider-with-patrick-lyons/id1762349675 https://open.spotify.com/show/2MVUbiBbDp3wM85z2yy0Ut ✏️WRITTEN ✏️ https://www.justbaseball.com/author/patrickdennislyons/ https://patrickdlyons.substack.com/ 🚨 SOCIAL MEDIA 🚨 https://x.com/Rockies_Insider https://x.com/PatrickDLyons https://www.threads.net/@rockies_insider https://www.threads.net/@patrickdlyonsmlb https://bsky.app/profile/rockiesinsider.bsky.social https://bsky.app/profile/patrickdlyons.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@patrickdlyonsmlb Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
