9-1 home stand and gaining!

As the Rockies go 21 games over .500, gain on the Dodger, pull away from the Giants and no matter what that will continue tonight.  The Dodgers and Giants will be playing and as long as the Rockies keep on keepin' on, they will either pull further away from the pesky Giants or get that much closer to leading the NL West.  

Not to mention the current 7 game winning streak.  The Rockies are rolling and no one can seem to stop them.  Not even a team as hot as the Reds were when they came into town.  Now we are off to San Diego where we will play a team that has nothing to play for.  It won't be easy, it never is in San Diego, but the way this team seems to pull out wins like a magician pulling rabbits out of his hat, it could be very beneficial having to go to San Fran. against the Giants.  The Rockies will win the division.  Even if you see that the Rockies have only won 3 times against the Dodgers this year, when we go to L.A. for that last series and we sweep them out of their own house on our way to the first NL West championship, the only 3 previous wins won't matter because the Rockies would have made the greatest turnaround in MLB history.  

Even with Cook, Tulo, Dex, and other key members of this team out, they still find a way to win.  6 walk off wins this season including the first ever walk off grand slam by Spilly.  When the team is almost back to full strength for the NLDS, I really don't see how anyone will be able to keep up with the pitching and hitting of the Rockies.  No, not even the Cardinals.  It will be interesting to see how it all ends up, either way, the Rockies are all but in the Playoffs and the chance of a NL west title is within reach!
