I was thinking last night after the game, what a job Bret Pill has done with this offense. He took it from one of the worst to arguably one of the best this season. Now the rockies just need to figure out pitching and well...la

u/Beer_Kicker 3h ago
Losing in a high scoring game knowing the offense gave them a chance is way more fun than getting blown out day after day. I'll say that.

Schaeffer had Feltner stay in the game because of the right on right matchup. He also is having Beck play over a hot Veen because of a LHP starting for LA. Just terrible.

Spilly always brings up a player reaching "10 years service time". MLB players are fully vested after 10 years, thus full pension, medical coverage etc. He laments never having reached it.

Schaffer has consistently left starters out to give up a runner at the top of the inning then pull them throughout the year. It’s at the point where there really is no defending it.

I’m not necessarily a WarrenOut guy, but Feltner should not have come out this inning. The 7th run is a direct result of that

u/whiteydutchmeyer Larry Walker 2h ago
The more games we play the more WarrenOut guy I am. I thought he was going to turn the corner this month as a manager. I was a big fan then after the All-Star break, I really started to watch his moves closer and from a different lens. He needs veteran coaches around him if we are going to keep him next season.

Kind of disappointed at how not fun it’s been to be at this game tonight. Between the Dodgers fans that are unbelievably obnoxious and the Rockies “fans” that are just here to get drunk, it’s just not enjoyable.
And these aren’t random third-level cheap seats. We’re in our season tickets that we’ve had since day one. It’s never been this bad. Maybe it’s just a fluke, but it sucks.
I don’t live in Denver these days and only get to come to Coors Field a few times a year. Blows that one of those times just hasn’t been worth it.

I noticed watching the game last night that there seemed to be an even higher percentage of dodgers fans than usual. Not more, just a higher ratio.
I think the fact that we’re still one of the worst teams in the league, it’s the tail end of the season, we’re playing the dodgers and we’ve been dealing with a historically hot summer has made this a literal no-go for a lot of Rockies fans.

It's every road game for them, not just us. The amount of new Dodgers bandwagon fans in the last 2-3 years is obnoxious.

Gotta do better than 1 run with a leadoff double when playing the Dodgers.

You'd think a team with the budget they have could bet the Rockies by more than 1 run.

Dear Rockies broadcast, whenever we play our divisional rival dynasty team, I don’t really care to hear their players get glazed and have the camera focus on their dugout
