I hope this is satire because it's one of the most insane takes I've seen in a while.

My question is, how did the Brewers suddenly get so frickin’ good?

“”””the Colorado Rockies””””

Never heard of them, this is worse than when I was talking to an old high school football buddy and then high school football coach on the phone, and inquired how the Houston Oilers were doing, and he laughed, saying they no longer existed and had moved to Tennessee.

Oh yes satire - the Rockies are far and away the worst team in MLB this season.

I was at a bar yesterday evening for a cocktail and they happened to have the D’Backs - Rockies game on. I remarked to the bartender there is no way the Rockies get out of the first scoreless. Sure enough the Rockies pitcher surrendered a three-run dinger.

Aren’t they pretty much headed toward breaking the White Sox worst-season record from last year?

Too ridiculous to even read past the first paragraph.

In Colorado two weeks ago today and I took my son and his family to Rockies vs Pirates. 18 rows behind the home dugout, $175 seats. I got them for $62 because… they suck. Good game actually and they won 8-5 after a pretty dramatic thunderstorm rain delay. Last I looked they were 35.5 games back, so I have to confess I don’t share the author’s optimism

“Forget everything you think you know about baseball...”

Already have as they don’t know how to play the game. They don’t know how to hit, bunt, field, or throw strikes.

Baseball and all other professional sports aren't about loving the game anymore, they're about "show me the money"!

I quit watching all of them.

I don't care about the Rockies. just what I hear on the Denver news.

But my immediate response so seeing this article was:

WHAT??

The experiment known as MLB baseball in Denver needs to be unceremoniously terminated.

All they have to do is play the Pirates every game for the rest of the year and this could happen. They looked like the ‘27 Yankees when the Bucs were in town.
