Happy Rockies Fest to those of you who celebrate! The season is inching closer as fans descend on Coors Field to celebrate (?) the Colorado Rockies as they get ready to embark on their 2025 campaign. Players and media will be there as well, and we’ll finally have a more tangible look at the team and what might happen.
In addition, there will be autograph and photo opportunities, as well as a garage sale and plenty of other fun fan opportunities.
But in the meantime, here’s what our writers were up to this week:
