The Colorado Rockies return home — and the last time they were here, they looked… incredible. Fresh off a four-game sweep of the Atlanta Braves and a four-day All Star Break, the Rox went down to San Diego and a rain out on Sunday was by far the best thing that happened in that series. And, in the words of Forrest Gump, that’s all we’ve got to say about that. 

Anyways, more interleague play! The Rangers! Another AL West club! In Denver!

The Rangers had played a bit above their projections for quite a while this year, but they’ve faded just slightly recently, and now find themselves five games under .500 upon their arrival to Coors Field.

As always, here are your probable pitchers, along with the usual series preview fare for you wonderful folks. .
