...on the recent demise of the Rockies as a contender...
"Unless you've got a no-trade, or you're locked in, you better walk around this clubhouse like you're going to get traded," said Rockies right fielder Larry Walker, who had a wonderful all-around game in defeat, and does have a no-trade contract. "Because you're gonna. Nobody should walk around this clubhouse right now thinking they're staying in a Rockies uniform."
That pretty well sums it up. Not unlike last season, when the Rox took a 7 game losing streak into the All-Star break, and then completely fell apart through the rest of July.
O'Dowd will be looking to trade, and some pretty good players may end up leaving Denver. From what I've been reading, Astacio and Perez may be the next to go. Gant's already gone. With the personnel on this team, there is absolutely no excuse for being in the cellar of the NL West.
