FSN midwest is airing the game. There's cardinals fans and empty seats. Everyone's probably getting high

Supposedly until the Rockies were established in 93, St. Louis was the most popular baseball team there

A lot of folks here are calling for a boycott until the team is sold. The owner was quoted a year or two ago as saying his goal is to make the playoffs once every five years. It's a beautiful park and I would imagine any local that is there is at the bar in center field that they removed seats to build this year.

Went by Coors a few weeks ago. Cool park in a cool part of Denver. Shame they're such a shitty team.

I don't even think the Rockies problems are the fault of the owner. It's just impossible to build a viable pitching staff in Coors. The only way that franchise will be consistently good is if they move to another location.

I don't think it's impossible to win in Denver. I think they just lack the talent to compete from a pitching perspective.

Never understood this argument. Both teams' pitchers are pitching at the same altitude. Focus on acquiring only ground ball pitchers.

The difference is the road team only has to play 3-10 times a year. The Rockies have to play there 81 times a year. It takes a heavy toll on the pitching staff. And the ground ball pitcher argument doesn't work because the ball doesn't sink as well in the thin air. Greg Maddux had an era of 5.19 at Coors Field. Pedro Martinez's career ERA in Denver was over 5. Clayton Kershaw's career ERA at Coors is 4.63. Roger Clemens had an ERA of 4.71 at Coors. These are some of the greatest pitchers in the history of the game and none of them were able to pitch effectively at Coors. What makes you think other pitchers would be able to pitch well in Denver?

Well that's certainly some good data; data that I didn't know, so good post.
