Colorado Rockies weekend discussion thread for September 14-15, 2024
The 2024 season is really coming to an end now. The Colorado Rockies are in Los Angeles to take on the Los Angeles Dodgers for their final road trip of 2024. Shohei Ohtani hit his 50 HR/50 SB mark on Thursday in a performance for the ages, so luckily he got that out of the way before the Rox came into town! Ohtani now sits at 52/52 with eight games left and five of them against the Rockies… will he get to 60/60?
On the other hand, the Rox need to go 4-4 to finish 63-99 and avoid that 100-loss season. Can they do that while also thwarting Ohtani, and potentially keeping the Dodgers from winning the NL West?
Here’s what our writers thought about the Rockies this week:
