Colorado Rockies weekend discussion thread for December 21-22, 2024
The weekend is a great time to kick back and reflect. This Week in Purple is the place to catch up on the news from our team at Purple Row. You’ll find links to Rockpiles and other content below as well as a platform for community discussion in the comments.

The Colorado Rockies will be celebrating their 32nd anniversary in 2025, and Purple Row will celebrating our 20th anniversary!
Since 1993, the Rockies have posted a 2321-2699 record (.462 W-L%) with five playoff appearances, one World Series appearance and two Hall-of-Famers (who also represent their only retired numbers). They’ve also had six managers and played in front of 89,436,281 fans.
Meanwhile, Purple Row has had seven managers and written over 27,000 articles since 2005. We currently have an active staff of 10 writers, and I am incredibly proud of the work we have done and continue to do.
That said, Purple Row will be celebrating during the 2025 season — potentially including the return of a special 20th Anniversary Opening Day Breakfast — so keep an eye out!
But in the meantime, here’s how we spent the week:
