As the calendar turns to August, the majority of eyeballs and attention spans in Denver and the Rocky Mountain region are expected to turn their attention toward the Denver Broncos. After all, it’s August and it’s time for the defending Super Bowl champs to get back to business and get back to work at training camp. Oh wait, there’s still baseball being played at 20th and Blake? Oh yeah, it’s still baseball season as well, isn’t it?
That’s been the outlook since the Rockies last sniffed the postseason in 2009 and had a winning record on August 1 in 2010.
