Believe it or not, but since that outrageous record-breaking series, the Colorado Rockies‘ rotation is one of the biggest reasons why the team is 4-3 on their current nine-game road trip.
Despite a league-worst 5.48 ERA, in the past seven games, the Rockies’ rotation is 3-0 with a 1.99 ERA, giving up 11 runs (nine earned) in 40.2 innings with 34 strikeouts and a 1.25 WHIP.
Unfortunately for the rotation, they have been overshadowed by the three consecutive heartbreaking walk-off home runs the bullpen gave up to the Dodgers this past weekend. That includes German Marquez masterful performance opposite Walker Buehler as Marquez went eight innings, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits while striking out eight and walking none.
