Every time we count the Rockies out, they do something special to make us believe again. It’s amazing how they have consistently done this all season. For example, right before the All Star break they went on a run and had a chance to catch the Padres the last game before the break. Then just as CBS Sports Larry Dobrow puts out his latest Power Rankings writing about how his pre-season NL favorite is done and doesn’t t have a chance, the Rocks come home and sweep the NL east leading Atlanta Braves. With the sweep they moved to within four games of the wild card. Everything again seemed possible as the Rockies still get to play all the teams in front of them. They got LoDo believing again. Four games back with a day off then you get your horse in Ubaldo Jimenez on the hill against the Dodgers.
The Rockies ended up losing that game Friday against the Dodgers. Every time they have a chance to take that next step they are unable to. It’s exciting that they're still in the wild card race, but they need to step up or it’s going to be late. They still have a chance, but cant waste games at home.
My next article idea came from a follower as I will write about his fantasy football team.
