The Colorado Rockies are absolutely excited about going on this road trip to Chicago and St. Louis… right?

Two playoff-bound clubs (well, barring something weird) with the way the Rockies hit away from Coors — and the way the Cardinals have been playing, well, they’ll be looking for revenge after the Rockies embarrassed them in Denver a few weeks ago.
