Nope. Their Reopening Day is June 28th.

https://www.purplerow.com/2021/6/2/22465294/colorado-rockies-pittsburgh-pirates-coors-field-opening-day-again

 

The Colorado Rockies announced today that the City of Denver, the State of Colorado, and Major League Baseball, have given them the green light to open Coors Field to its full capacity of 50,144 starting on Monday, June 28th.

 

Brewers are at home this weekend my man.

 

Well that's dumb :)

Ugh. I was really hoping Keston would spend a couple months down there. Recalling him now is more or less a repeat of the last go around.

 

Hiura's all around AAA numbers are good. However, he has 26 K's in 72 AB's in AAA. Per my math that is a 36% clip. No bueno.

Thats' what I get for working through lunch, eating lunch, and posting on this goofy site.

 

Also, a 3:10 CT start is deceptively mountain timey :)

That's 26 Ks in 89 plate appearances, a 29.2 K%.

 

Since going down the second time he has K'd 13 times in 50 PAs, a 26 K%, compared to 13 Ks in 39 PAs the first trip, a 33 K%.

 

Will that progress translate to MLB? Are the samples too small to infer any real meaning?

 

Stay tuned, I guess.

Why is the entire upcoming Rockies series afternoon games. 3:05 PM on a Friday?

 

Probably some hullabaloo with the "re-opening day" stuff, combined with the Bucks being in the Eastern Conference finals.

 

Ahh yes, I knew there was some kind of reason. Probably would have gotten more people not trying to make it a gimmicky "opening day" style time. They are no where near selling out that game.

I understand the Friday "re-opening" day start time, but I'm a bit frustrated with all the 3:10 Saturday games this month. This will be the 3rd one. I have the Saturday 20 game package and had other events get in the way of me and my wife going to the previous two Saturday games. I would not have been able to use them, even if they were night games, but at least I could have given them to my Son. He could have made both games at 6:10 (the normal Saturday start time), but couldn't make either of the previous games because HS baseball coaching obligations.

I see that Yeli is getting the obligatory day off after hitting a home run.

 

At least it's good to see Christian creating some separation from Houser on the home run list this year.

Yelich's splits against LHP is decidedly un-Yelichlike this year. Rocking a .627 OPS and only his .351 OBP is anywhere near satisfactory.

I forgot to pay attention to Hiura's stride/leg kick. Anybody have anything they noticed?

Looked the same to me but I literally only saw one pitch of his AB

That was 100.7 mph off the bat for Hiura, and 414 feet according to Statcast.

 

Smith caught it front of the 413 marking on the wall, though...

Would it have hit the ground at 414 without the wall or the Smith in the way?

Good swing by Adames and not rewarded.

The Saturday 3:10 start times are because Fox often does regional telecasts at that time.

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

Failing to convert these scoring chances really hurts in a game where one or two runs might be enough to win.

 

Smith continues to baffle the Brewers just like he did when he was with Miami.
