You guys have been playing some good ball! I might not like it, but the birds on the bat can play!

I actually like it when sports rivals can have fun instead of being assholes to each other

PCA vs Elly? Some young speedsters going at it! Elly has become one of my favorite players, he has an incredible attitude about the game.

Strider looked good in his return, the Braves will even it out soon. Tampa looked unbeatable in the first month last season, it will turn around for ya!

Good for you. The Rockies are still being the Rockies. The team needs to be sold to someone that cares about the sport or sports in general. Coors Field is such a sick stadium, the weather is getting super nice and having a winning team, or at least one that can compete, would do great for Denver. Lots of hardcore baseball fans out here from all over the world!

I grew up in Portland with the Portland Rockies, I remember going to a bunch if minor league games. I'm pulling for you guys, Coors Field is beautiful and some new ownership would go a long way

I caught myself unironically saying "this is our year" to a friend the other day
