    Dollander is significantly more talented than his ERA shows, it's always hard to get a gauge on any pitcher in Colorado.

    On the flip side, Coors is a pretty terrible spot for a guy like Gordon who pitches to a lot of contact.

    Rockies are throwing two pitchers with an era over 6 and one with an era over 5.5.
    I fear we may be cooked

    Surprisingly below average road record + bad team + dodgers on the horizon = all the makings of a trap series

    I think it alternates each year. This year the Astros are playing at Colorado and home against Colorado so it's them this year.

    If memory serves, the Rockies series last year was the beginning of the turnaround.

    Man, I was thinking that, but my mind said it would be stupid to alternate rivals, and that it had to be just one of them.
