Colorado Rockies

The Colorado Rockies have struggled this season, especially on the road where they have lost six of their last seven games. They will look to improve their road record with a win on Friday, which would be only their second road win of the season. Offensively, the Rockies are averaging 4.15 runs per game and have a batting average that ranks 13th in the league. Ryan McMahon leads the team with a .383 batting average and nine RBI, while Michael Toglia has hit three home runs. Unfortunately, Colorado's pitching has been the worst in the league so far, giving up an average of 6.23 runs per game. Opponents have a .297 batting average against the Rockies, contributing to their struggles on the mound. In their last game, the bullpen was unable to hold a solid start from Feltner, resulting in an 8-6 loss to Tampa Bay. The Rockies will need another strong start from their pitching staff and better bullpen performance if they hope to come out on top in their next game. Overall, with a power ranking of 30 and a 3-10 record, Colorado is ranked 16th in offense and 30th in defense in the league.
