Should Rockies Deal Holliday?
2008-06-01 10:54:00
The Denver Post has split opinions on whether or not the Rockies should deal Matt Holliday this season.  Columnist Troy E. Renck says the Rockies have been bad "from top to bottom."  He cites the rotation, situational hitting, leaky bullpen, and dealing with pressure as problem spots and that they would need to go "70-36 in their final 106 games" to be in contention. As MLBTR has covered here, Woody Paige reports that the Rockies can't tie up $40MM in three position players and that Scott Boras won't accept a hometown discount.  Paige proposes:Holliday would be a significant addition for Cleveland, and the Rockies also could send best friend Garrett Atkins or Brad Hawpe... [for] starting pitcher Cliff Lee (8-1, 1.88 ERA and four superb pitches), a middle reliever and an outfield prospect. The Rox, depending on the second player in the deal, play Ian Stewart at third or in left, and Ryan Spilborghs becomes a full-time starting outfielder who could be the next Hollida...

Saturday Game Thread: Rockies at Cubs 12:00 CT/1:00 ET
2008-05-31 18:29:00
He's Baaaaaaack. First, let's dispense with the niceties. We all know that Glendon Rusch had a blood clot in his lung. We all know that this was a very serious condition that very easily could have killed him, and we're all very glad that he's healthy and happy to able to return to his chosen profession; thereby making him, once again, fair game. That said, he really really stunk last time he pitched for us, he was even Novoa-esque, and if you guys think I've forgotten about "Gascan Glendon" or the "Chubby Exacerbator," you can think again. So today Gascan returns to Chicago, fresh off being released by the Sunshine Home for Aging and Retired Cubs Pitchers, otherwise known as the San Diego Padres. Sadly, for Gascan, he and his 6.41 ERA are about to face a one-man wrecking crew by the name of Ryan Dempster. And no, I can't believe I said that, either. But it's true. Welcome home, Gascan. Unlike yesterday, it's a beeeeeyooooutiful day in greater Chicagoland today. The Cubs ar...

Game Thread- Rockies @ Cubs- 1:20 P.M. Central/2:20 P.M. Eastern- Top of th
2008-05-30 18:00:00
Go get yourself a brown paper bag. Sure, use that one, just take the Scotch out of it first. No I don't, it's 10 in the morning. Please sit down, too. Are you sitting? The Chicago Cubs have the best record in baseball. P-A-R-T...Y?  Because I gotta! Pitchers The Cubs trot out veteran left-hander and all-around Paragon of Virtue Ted Lilly.  Ted Lilly has had wins in 4 of his last 5 starts.  He was given the no-decision on Sunday after Alfonso Soriano lost the ball in the sun, but he also didn't pitch all that well- 4 ER in 6 innings. It's interesting to note that the Cubs have had pretty good pitching so far out of Z, and surprisingly out of Ryan Dempster.  But another reason for their success has been Ryan Theriot and, earlier, Reed Johnson.  Now that Reed Johnson has cooled off, Ted Lilly is doing much better.  These things go in cycles, of course, but I'm fairly confident that if you're looking for either Ted Lilly to continue pitching well, o...
Heyman On the Rockies and Holliday
2008-05-30 14:33:00
The idea of the Rockies trading Matt Holliday this summer is not a new one. Ken Rosenthal speculated on the possibility two weeks ago. Today, Jon Heyman goes a little deeper. While he feels trading Holliday is certainly possible, there are at least a couple of executives who think it is unlikely. To sum up: The Rockies are tied for the worst record in baseball and several executives are now wondering if they will be willing to trade Garrett Atkins and/or Holliday. Willy Taveras and Brian Fuentes will almost certainly be made available. One GM thinks that last year's mid-season turnaround may make Dan O'Dowd less likely to pull the trigger on a trade. One exec said that the Rockies will have a tough time matching the deals that the Indians received for Bartolo Colon in '03 and the Rangers received for Mark Teixera last year, as those were highly specialized situations.

Game Thread; Rockies at Cubs, 8:05 p.m. EDT/7:05 CT: Yuck
2008-05-30 00:00:00
We could be headed this way tonight One look at the sidebar, and it tells you that tonight is most assuredly not going to be a repeat of last night's well-pitched game. Neither one of those guys are worthy to go into stat-wise, so I'm going to give you a little grab-bag of Cubs stuff. Ingest the info now, thank me later. ? Over at the Hardball blog, Lou discusses how he really, really wants another lefthanded power bat. And again, I say: There is the greatest one ever, and right now he is chilling at home, waiting for the Cubs to call. You think this offense is badass now? With Bonds it would be historic. ??At SportsbyBrooks, there is a great post about an incident that a lot of people overlooked from last night. Are that guy and kid the biggest fucking morons ever? This frightens me. A lot. If you see either one at another game, please knee the man in the head, and kindly sit the child down and say if he ever does that again, he will be eaten by Pennywise the Clown. Use visuals ...

Rockies looking for outfielders
2008-05-25 20:06:00
BY ADAM RONIS If you think you can play the outfield, give the Rockies a call. Matt Holliday is the latest Rockies outfielder to go on the DL with a strained hamstring. Brad Hawpe is on the DL and Willy Taveras has a bruised right knee. Corey Sullivan was recalled from Triple-A. Ryan Spilborghs should see the bulk of the time in rightfield and is a good short-term option. Scott Podsednik and Seth Smith should play in place of Holliday.
