Alon Leichman, new pitching coach for the Colorado Rockies, has a fan (and friend) in Team Israel GM Simon Rosenbaum.

“Self made, self taught, has worked really hard to get to where he is both with all the information (and) all the technology.”

Hunter Goodman had a breakout season, winning the NL Silver Slugger Award for Colorado.

What does #Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer think Goodman needs to do to take his next step? Leadership.

Also, expect more days at DH in the Cal Raleigh mold for Colorado’s catcher.

Warren Schaeffer on the #Rockies new leadership casting off organization stalwarts Michael Toglia, Warming Bernabel and Drew Romo:

“I like the establishment of a direction… Paul (DePodesta) has a different process than what were previously used to. It’s a good process.”

"(To) create a new future for this franchise which I think is arguably the most interesting in baseball with the challenges (they face)."

Monstrous 442-foot three-run home run for Bo Bichette off Shohei Ohtani.

Blue Jays take a commanding 3-0 lead at home in Toronto.

Don’t need to run when you hit it that far.

Have you ever seen Shohei Ohtani show this much emotion?

He’s 4-for-4 during with two dingers and two doubles. First player in the World Series with 4 XBH in a game.

Ohtani is also 7-for-7 with five homers in his last two games at Dodger Stadium. He’s not from this planet.

Trevor Story homers to tie it against the Yankees in the sixth. He has driven in all three Red Sox runs.

In his first postseason series since the 2018 NLDS with the Rockies, Story has gone 4-for-8 (.500) with a steal, a home run and 3 RBI.

One year ago today.

#Rockies Charlie Blackmon took the field one last time before his retirement.

Very happy for Brent Suter.

Cast aside by the Brewers only pitch really well for the Rockies in 2023 who lost 100+ games for the first time that year.

Now he’s going to the postseason with his hometown team, the Cincinnati Reds.
