    Every Rockie Ever #34: Yorvit Torrealba and Jonathan Lucroy

    In this episode of Every Rockie Ever, Skyler and Dustin reunite to talk about two notable veteran catchers for the Rockies. Yorvit Torrealba etched his name into Rockies lore as the primary catcher in 2007 while carving out a solid career in purple. Despite being a platoon catcher behind Chris Ianneta, Torrealba always made the most of his playing time. Jonathan Lucroy was a great trade acquisition at the deadline in 2017, immediately impacting a young pitching staff and navigating them to the playoffs. What made him better was that he found some offensive resurgence after the trade, even though the power wasn't there, and made us wish we could have re-signed him. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Affected by Altitude Episode 134: Guess Who's Back

    This week Skyler and Evan are hit with news most unwelcome: Bud Black will return in 2025 as the manager of the Colorado Rockies for a ninth season. Further coaching staff shakeups are not expected with only PJ Pilittere and Reid Cornelius being shown the door after back-to-back 100-loss seasons in Denver. We wrap things up with some Arizona Fall League talk and the playoffs so far. It's all about the Mets baby lets go Mets love da Mets. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Skyler and Evan process the first week of the Colorado Rockies offseason by saying... now what? The Rockies have yet to announce Bud Black's future and it's been mostly radio silence from the organization. Meanwhile, there are multiple teams in the playoffs the Rockies could learn a thing or two from. We wrap things up with the first of many offseason games by spinning the wheel of fate and drafting a coaching staff made of former Rockies players! Learn more about your ad choices.

    Affected by Altitude Episode 132: We Finally Lost Your Love Tonight

    This week, Skyler and Evan send off the 2024 Colorado Rockies regular season with a bang by saying their final goodbyes to longtime fan favorite Charlie Blackmon. After a 14-year career in purple, Blackmon rides off into the sunset... and Rockies fans are left with many questions about what comes next for their beleaguered franchise. Does Bud Black stay or go? What other players will be leaving this offseason? Who will take over as having the catchiest walk-up music? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Affected by Altitude Episode 131: Gearing Up For Decisions and Departures

    This week, Skyler and Evan discuss the position battles for 2025 that seem to have already started. Top catching prospect Drew Romo hasn't seen the field in 11 days and appears to have been supplanted by Hunter Goodman. What's the reasoning, and can we expect Goodman to start at catcher next year? Meanwhile, when it comes to fourth outfielder, the Rockies need to make a decision between Sam Hilliard and Jake Cave because you can't keep both. Finally, this might be Charlie Blackmon's last week as a Colorado Rockie and maybe as a big league ball player. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
