- Okay, Avs, looking to you for a win.
- But, hey, what’s not to like about double OT?
- Reposted by Renee DechertZac Veen's defense of his Spring Training MVP starts soon
- I am not sure I will survive OT . . . .
- Nuggets, you’ve gotta rebound.
- Framber to the Tigers?!?!
- You know, Altitude, I really do not want to watch Game & Fish TV. If I want that kind of information, I could, you know, read the local newspaper or have a conversation with pretty much anyone around here. I am *living* in a Game & Fish TV reality show (despite not owning a single piece of camo).
- Okay, doing Emo Night with the Yard Goats sounds amazing!
- PROMOTIONS ARE HERE! Emo Night, True Crime Night, Wedding Vow Renewal Night, Star Wars night, adult jersey giveaways, kids giveaways & more OH MY! See the COMPLETE list of promotions right here, right now. Tickets on sale tomorrow morning at 10am! tinyurl.com/mv2dw2j2
- You know, whenever I read my students’ papers, I am always amazed by the things they have experienced. And I wonder what weird force in the universe decided I was a person who should read their stories. It’s why I refuse to give into AI. They know how to tell their own stories. No machine could.
- Death, taxes, and the Yankees claiming another former Rockie. (Seriously, though, hoping for nothing but good things for Yanquiel.)
- Reposted by Renee DechertI recently put together a list of essential @bsky.app starter packs for every major (and not-so-major) sport. No one can check out this site and whine about a lack of sports anymore. No more excuses! badfaithtimes.com/your-guide-t...
- Aqualung. And it’s not even close.
- Reposted by Renee DechertDid I ever mention that we got stickers and that $1 from each sale goes towards the Immigrant Law Center of MN? Shirts are going out this week! #abolishice
- Reposted by Renee DechertHis first major crisis as Pope was the Luis Robert trade
- Reposted by Renee DechertThe 2016 first-round draft pick has a history of big walk and strikeout numbers, but a trip to Driveline earned him a shot with the Friars. #padres #sandiego #forthefaithful
- Grateful for an early Nuggets start time. (Now if they could just get AG back . . . .)
- The only thing keeping me going right now is the promise of watching Bad Bunny play the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday.
- I always enjoy prospect rankings:
- Reposted by Renee DechertEvery year I think to myself, "Cell phone video of guys throwing baseballs can't possibly heal me this time. The winter has been too dark, too cold, too long. The world is too depressing." And then every year I am wrong.
- First sight of Nolan McLean 🤩 🌴🎟️👉 atmlb.com/4qDlxyw

- Reposted by Renee Dechertyou know one great thing about the Giants signing Arráez is McCovey Chronicles has some nice headline fodder coming “Arráez Doesn’t Strike Out, Giants Lose Anyway” and etc
- Cole Carrigg playing “Family Feud” at #Rockies Fest. (Trying Searchlight.)
- *Skylight. Apologies!
- A friend’s son opened a #barber shop. I had no idea they used toolboxes in this way. (Trying out #Flashes.)
- Whatever happens with the Rockies pitching, it’s going to be different.
- Fair enough.
- This seems about right.
- Everything is terrible. But Joker is back.
- Glory hallelujah!
- I have questions . . . . (To be fair, it’s early for this kind of thing.)
- In case anyone wonders what happened at Harriet Hageman’s Thermopolis town hall.
- Reposted by Renee DechertGood morning! www.rockiespitch.com/lets-talk-ab...
- Reposted by Renee DechertWhat do a million simulations using ZiPS projections say? That the #Brewers and Cubs are going to battle it out in the NL Central. That should be a surprise. I wrote about it for @brewerfanatic.com:
- If the Rockies finish 61-101, the season will have been a resounding success. (Weird typing that . . . .)
- Always read @rockiesvsconnor.bsky.social
- If there’s any baseball player I hope good things for, it’s Jake Bird.
- Okay, this is interesting: divine.video
- Reposted by Renee DechertAI-generated content is flooding digital platforms, but some are taking steps to help users manage it.
- Reposted by Renee Dechert@premthakker.bsky.social has been making a list across all sports, and from here we learn that retired players Jason Kipnis and Trevor May have come out against tyranny. May had played for the Twins, and you'd think anyone who plays or had played in the twin cities would be speaking out!
- Reposted by Renee Dechert"Heated Rivalry" has gifted NHL with a broader audience. So where do things stands with league's teams and Pride Nights? Looked into this for @theathletic.com www.nytimes.com/athletic/699...
- A nice summary of Paul DePodesta’s comments yesterday.
- From the newspaper of the small conservative town in which I live.
- Trending in the right direction.
- I think there’s another trade?
- The details:
- Reposted by Renee DechertForgive me for being simplistic, but ... Edouard Julien's prospect profile was fueled by a minimal chase rate, and while he's bounced up and down in recent years, he has a career .427 OBP in the Minors. Paul DePodesta is widely recognized as the inspiration for Jonah Hill's Moneyball character.
- Whoa.
- Okay, that’s interesting.
- Read more here.
- Reposted by Renee Dechert#Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer wants to be aggressive with in-game offensive moves -- a la A.J. Hinch with the #Tigers. This offseason is the early stage of building depth to make that possible. www.mlb.com/news/rockies...
- A Nuggets-Rockies crossover night? What could go wrong? (Also, Spilly is there, so that’s cool!)
