Tweeted by Andrew Fisher (Purple Row columist): Dexter Fowler seems to be struggling but really he’s not due to baseball gods; he’s hitting line drives like never before:
2008: 14.30% Line Drive rate
2009: 21.00%
2010: 21.60%
2011: 21.40%
2012: 23.50%
cool stats…at least he isn’t swinging for the fences…i’m sure Scutaro’s line-drive rate is about the same since he is always lining out to short/second…
Ian Stewart now hitting .183…. Same ol stuff from him so far. I don’t miss him at all.
I have a good feeling that the Rocks will take two today!
Happy that you’re an optimist, but I don’t feel good about today especially with Chacin on the mound. I don’t know what I’m going to get out of him.
For the record I also did not miss him when he was batting over .300

Nelson oh-for away from Coors Field. Needs to make a U-turn in a hurry.
Embarassing when your own pitcher gets a walk while everyone else are oh-for with a Cy Young wannabe throwing.
Their ERA as a team is 2.72. That is third in the majors. They do have good pitching.
I knew that, but they are overperforming. They are all average starters. At the end of the year, I wouldn’t be surprised if their staff is bottom third of NL staffs.
I thought Arizona’s staff overperformed all last year and they won the division.
Why do you always have to pick on the Rockies late in the game with your HRs, Pedro Alvarez???
Ha! No doubt.
Esmil Rogers???? Where are you Belisle to redeem yourself?
Damn ballsy move, JT! Rogers struck out the side!
Rogers only had one bad inning this season so far…same as Belisle…i had faith that Rogers would come through and he did – boy, did he!
