Game #133: Francis vs. Cain (Purple Row)

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 01:00:07 GMT

The Rockies are 4-5 against the Giants, scoring 34 runs and allowing 36. We need to see them turn both those categories around. We also need to see Jeff Francis get that three out of his win column. That just isn't right. The Giants send Matt Cain to the mound. Cain's done well against the Rockies, going 6-3 with a 2.89 ERA in 12 starts. Go Rockies! W-L G GS CG SHO SV BS IP H R ER HR...

Open Thread: 8/14, Padres vs. Brewers (Gaslamp Ball)

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 18:26:14 GMT

It irks me that they keep moving Peavy's starts. In the last two weeks Peavy was suppose to face Jeff Francis and C.C. Sabathia. In Colorado it would have been Ace vs. Ace and yesterday it could have been 2007 NL Cy Young vs. 2007 AL Cy Young. That would have been an exciting game to watch. That's something fans could get excited about during an otherwise dreadful season. Instead they...

DENVER -- Let's talk trades. The Colorado Rockies sure are. If putting pitcher Jeff Francis on the disabled list Wednesday was not their white flag, it was pretty close. Francis could have continued to pitch through an inflamed shoulder, but the way he's pitching and the Rocks are playing, why risk it? read more
