The Colorado Rockies are now finished with their marathon road trip (they went 5-5!), and their crazy series in Los Angeles against the NL West-leading Dodgers.

Obviously, we haven’t been running the run down in the last day or two, only because it’s difficult to do it early morning after late nights at those Dodgers games and, you know, real world responsibilities. But the rundown is back! And it’ll only keep rolling along from here.

Here’s what’s going down in today’s edition of the rundown:

• Cristhian Adames is impressing the right people.
• Kyle Kendrick is nominated for an award!
• Nolan Arenado plays good defense.
• MLBTR’s free agent power rankings are out. Will any of them affect the Colorado Rockies?
• Connor Farrell went on a podcast (I know, I’m horrified about it, too.)
• Speaking of podcasts, Purple Dino Podcast dropped another episode this week!

Lots to discuss! Let’s cover today’s news and notes around the Colorado Rockies.
