I have a feeling, and I mentioned it on the radio show Sunday night, that this 7-game road trip for the Rockies will be a make or break swing. The trip includes 4-games in Atlanta and 3 at Washington, a much improved club.
If they go 4-3 or 3-4 that isn't too bad. But my feeling is anything less than that could mean also ran status in the second half and perhaps some trades by Rockies GM Dan O'Dowd.
Well, so far the Rockies are 0-2 on the trip. They lost last night 4-1 as Freddie Freeman cracked a pair of homers. The Braves won again this evening 5-3 as Freeman homered again. The rookie has 12 homers on the season.
The Rockies are 41-45 and just 19-23 on the road. What started as a promising season in April was shot down in May and could be finished by the All-Star break.
