Dorktown and Baseball Bits in the same day!
Hey u/foolishbaseball,
I love you.
"They stink!" Yeesh FB tell us how you really feel.
It's heart wrenching seeing the pieces we had in place 3 years ago, and how few of those were Bridich's doing.
Also, "Before COVID... Monfort stated the Rockies would win 94 games in 2020. That's not optimism, that's ignorance."
I was thinking about this yesterday. They refuse, even after the Arenado trade, to commit to saying we're in a rebuild. This indicates one of two things:
They know its all BS, and their lying to try and cover up this PR nightmare- feigning that this is all part of a plan to retain season ticket holders.
They are truly clueless that we've missed our contention window, and are too ignorant to understand just how poorly they've executed the last 5 years
Its sort of a moot point. Whatever the case, it's clear they're not on the side of the fans

Wow, I knew it was bad in Colorado but not this bad. There's incompetence and then there's malice, Bridich seems to be leaning towards the latter.

Congrats, Foolish BB is helping spread your agenda!
Does the entire NLW fanbase just feel bad for Rockies fans at this point like I am? Theyβre hard to hate for very different reasons than teams are usually hard to hate.
I'm glad that Bailey brought up the fact that the Rockies need to build their team around Coors Field itself. For them, the option of signing an elite SP or RP is not feasible unless they drastically overpay for them, which isn't ideal in constructing a roster. It's a very unfortunate thing that people don't like to bring up, but baseball in Colorado is a different game, and it takes a very savvy and conscience GM to navigate around. Something that Jeff Bridich is not.
Then combine all this with the fact that the team refuses to understand that modern technology actually helps players. The Rockies need to be blown up on field and off, I'm talking Front office, pitching staffs, hitting staffs, GM, Owner....EVERYONE. (except spilly, he can stay)
