Ryan Feltner is set to begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Hartford as he continues his recovery from an elbow injury, marking a key step in his return to the rotation. The right-hander recently completed a 35-pitch live batting practice session on Wednesday, his first time facing hitters since landing on the injured list. The outing was viewed as a significant checkpoint in his progression, with team officials encouraged by how he responded physically afterward. While the

The Colorado Rockies may soon get a boost back in their rotation, as left-hander José Quintana is hopeful he can return from his right hamstring injury without needing a minor league rehab assignment. Quintana, who is currently on the 15-day injured list, believes the issue may have stemmed from the season-opening road trip, which included multiple starts on artificial turf in Miami and Toronto.

The Colorado Rockies received a timely pitching reinforcement as veteran left-hander Kyle Freeland rejoined the rotation following a stint on the 15-day injured list, while young right-hander Chase Dollander continues to establish himself as one of the club’s most effective arms early in the 2026 season. Freeland is set to start Tuesday night’s series opener in Cincinnati against the Reds after recovering from a shoulder issue that sidelined him since mid-April. The injury wa

With a new leadership group in place, attention has shifted toward long-term improvement, making this an ideal moment to evaluate the organization’s farm system. One annual tradition that reflects this forward-looking mindset is the Purple Row Prospects list (PuRPs), a community-driven ranking of the Rockies

Few figures in modern sports management attract as much attention as Paul DePodesta. Known widely for his association with Moneyball and the rise of analytics in baseball, DePodesta now faces perhaps his most difficult challenge yet: reshaping the Colorado Rockies. Hired by the Monfort family in November 2025 as president of baseball operations, DePodesta steps into an organization coming off a brutal 119-loss season. Expectations for an immediate turnaround are low, which m
