No Rockies player has ever earned a 1st or 2nd team All-MLB honors since the award was created in 2019. Will all that change with Hunter Goodman? After Cal Raleigh, who are the other catchers that could possible make the 2nd Team All-MLB over Goodman?

Five teams are in search of a new manager and that doesn't even include Colorado with interim manager Warren Schaeffer and Baltimore with interim manager Tony Mansolino. Bud Black is being viewed as a candidate for all five clubs. Which former Rockies are being favored for positions in Atlanta and San Francisco?

Plus, some great Rockies and Coors Field items up for auction right now, Jimmy Herget's impressive and overlooked season, and a world in which there is no postseason baseball on a Friday night in America.

It may have come a few days late, but the Colorado Rockies finally announced the worst kept secret in all of baseball: Bill Schmidt is out as general manager. How bad was his tenure as the chief decision maker for the team's roster since May of 2021? Has Colorado been a 100-loss team for the past five seasons?

Now we turn towards the next GM of the Rockies. Are there any indications as to who will be his replacement? And what was the most interesting detail of the press release from Dick Monfort and company?

Plus, remembering the first postseason game in Rockies history on this date in 1995, Matt Holliday's first home run in the 2007 playoffs and Hunter Goodman earns a place as a finalist for the All-MLB Team.

When will we hear from the Rockies about their plans for the future? While other clubs are making announcements about their manager and coaching staff for 2026, the Colorado Rockies are maintaining a radio silence following a 119-loss campaign. What kind of message does this send to fans? Is Colorado already doomed to fail with their next decision?

Griffin Herring was the headliner for the Rockies trade deadline, coming over in a two player package from the New York Yankees in exchange for Ryan McMahon. What prestigious list did Herring make in his first year as a professional?

Plus, Ryan McMahon rides the pine in the Bronx, Bob Melvin loses another premium gig and Bruce Bochy nears a return to the San Francisco Giants.

Warren Schaeffer has named three target areas for the 2026 Colorado Rockies that will be up for grabs when the team descends upon Scottsdale, Arizona in February. Could Michael Toglia get another shot at first base? And will Antonio Senzatela really be relegated to the bullpen?

Plenty of former Rockies will be present in the 2025 MLB Postseason. Is it possible to root for the Yankees or Red Sox in order to see Ryan McMahon or Trevor Story earn a World Series ring?

Plus, the many Colorado connections for the Toronto Blue Jays and the three teams without any Rockies representatives.

Colorado can no longer hurt you anymore, my dear listener. Game 162 for the Rockies was a microcosm of the entire 162-game season, the worst season ever experienced by this franchise or any other. What statistics highlight the horrendous play the most? And what have we learned from the second worst season in National League history?

Warren Schaeffer had some final words for his troops on Sunday. What did he say to the Rockies clubhouse? And does it have any bearing on what will transpire in 2026?

Plus, Kyle Freeland eyes a performance bonus for 2027, Griffin Herring eyes a pair of MiLB awards on Monday and we all eye the next majors dates in baseball for the upcoming 2026 season.

Blaine Crim continues to assert his dominance during the final few weeks of the season. Has the 28-year-old rookie done enough to earn a chance at battling for the 2026 Opening Day roster? Could Colorado go a different way at first base?

Washington hired a new President of Baseball Operations who’s considered one of the top young executives in the sport. Are we hours away from the Rockies making a similar announcement?

Plus, McCade Brown shows a side we haven’t seen yet, Hunter Goodman joins a rare group and Cal Raleigh electrifies the Seattle Mariners.

You asked for it and now you'll get it in 2026. The Automated Ball-Strike Challenge System. Regular season and postseason alike. What are the specifics? How much will this change the game? And who can make such a challenge during the game?

The Chicago Cubs sold mightily at the 2021 trade deadline while the Colorado Rockies did not. The Cubs are back in the postseason while the Rockies are in the midst of one of the worst seasons every experienced in the past 125 big league seasons. What can the Cubs teach a franchise like the Rockies?

Plus, the AL MVP race may end the closest we've ever seen while the NL MVP race is a no-brainer.

It's possible for the Colorado Rockies to set a new franchise record for most losses on the road in a single season less than a week after the record for most losses at home. Is there any good history on deck in Seattle and San Francisco before closing out the year? (Spoiler: Yes!)

Nolan Arenado gets another major ovation from the fans in St. Louis. Is it possible his career with the Cardinals is over? Would a reunion with the Rockies be totally out of the question?

Plus, Brenton Doyle looks to join some rarified air, Cal Raleigh elevates the Mariners to the top of the AL West and a pair of clubs left for dead (Guardians and Reds) control their postseason fate.
