Award Season continues with MVP being given out on Thursday. Two more unanimous winners in Ronald Acuña Jr. and Shohei Ohtani? Kevin Gausman of Grandview High School finished third in the AL Cy Young Award. Gerrit Cole won it in the Junior Circuit while Blake Snell did something rather rare in winning the NL CYA.

Who are the four newest prospects added to the 40-man roster? Is Kenta Maeda or Mike Clevinger a better fit for Coors Field? What happened in Texas that could bring back Jon Gray?

Patrick Lyons hosts the DNVR Rockies Podcast and welcomes Luke Zahlmann of the Denver Gazette to discuss his time covering the Rox, his favorite aspects of being a beat reporter and countless predictions about the team’s future.

The Oakland Athletics are one step closer to leaving the Bay Area as MLB owners approve their move to Las Vegas.

Corbin Carroll and Gunnar Henderson were unanimous winners of the 2023 Rookie of the Year Awards in the NL & AL. Carroll became the first player in Arizona Diamondbacks history to win the Jackie Robinson ROY Award while Henderson is the eighth in Baltimore Orioles history. We have a member of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America to share their ballot.

Why was Nolan Jones the second-best rookie in the National League? Was Spencer Steer actually better than third-place finisher James Outman? Would the results have been different with a five-player ballot?

Patrick Lyons hosts the DNVR Rockies Podcast and welcome Kevin Henry of FanSided to discuss the ROY results, predict the Manager of the Year Awards, announce two new managers and dig into all the news around MLB.

Corbin Carroll, to the surprise of the absolutely no one, was announced on Monday as the National League Rookie of the Year Award winner following a historic season. He earned all 30 of the first-place votes to become the first Arizona Diamondbacks rookie to be given the honor.

The Colorado Rockies and GM Bill Schmidt enter the offseason after the first 100-loss campaign in the 30-year history of the club.

The Rockies would love to join the likes of the Orioles, Rangers and Diamondbacks, three clubs who reached the playoffs in 2023 just two years after 100 losses.

In order for Colorado to do that, Schmidt will need to work wonders this offseason in terms of improving the big league roster and bridge the gap for October baseball in 2025.

The Colorado Rockies and GM Bill Schmidt enter the offseason after the first 100-loss campaign in the 30-year history of the club. For everything that went wrong in 2023, there was a counter act that created hope for a fanbase dying to see their team play relevant games during the summer months, let...

The National League West is no longer a powerhouse. The Los Angeles Dodgers are somewhat of a mess after Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman. The San Diego Padres may need to shed payroll and superstar Juan Soto. The San Francisco Giants have money to spend, but need help in a lot of areas. The Arizona Diamondbacks are trending upward in every way while the Colorado Rockies are trying to figure out what they can do in order to get back to the postseason in 2025.

How many teams need two starting pitchers? Could the Rockies make a sneaky big move? Are the Padres dead in the water?

Patrick Lyons hosts the DNVR Rockies Podcast and welcomes Kenneth Weber of Purple Row to examine an extension for Ezequiel Tovar, recognize the Nolan Jones’ success in 2023 and say goodbye to Clint Hurdle one more time.

Craig Counsell went from being a finalist for the 2023 Manager of the Year with the Milwaukee Brewers to the obvious choice of the New York Mets to the unlikeliest of choice of the Chicago Cubs, who already employed David Ross as their skipper. How much do the Brew Crew dislike Counsell right now?

Should MLB managers be paid more? What can we expect from the GM Meetings? And what player signed in 2010 has parted ways with the Rockies?

Patrick Lyons hosts the DNVR Rockies Podcast and welcomes Cody Delmendo of the CHGO Cubs to discuss the insanity of the Cubbies offseason so far before looking at some international free agents this offseason who will make immediate impact in MLB in 2024.

Brenton Doyle may not have made his Major League debut until nearly a month into the 2023 season, but his impact in the outfield was enough to earn him the National League Gold Glove Award for center field on Sunday.

The 25-year-old becomes the first center fielder to win the honors for the Colorado Rockies and just the second rookie for the franchise following Nolan Arenado at third base in 2013.

When Jon Gray was selected by the Colorado Rockies as the third overall pick in the 2013 MLB Draft, he was viewed as a key part of generational prospects that would lead the organization to the first World Series win in franchise history.

Though he was at the forefront of the club’s consecutive postseason appearances in 2017-18, it wouldn’t be until he left that Gray would help a team with their first ever championship.

Corey Seager and the Texas Rangers are one win away from taking their first World Series in franchise history. Marcus Semien sparked much of the Game 4 blowout that finished much closer than it was on Tuesday night. Ryne Nelson harkened his inner Madison Bumgarner in relief, Lourdes Gurriel put together a historic performance for the Snakes and Ketel Marte continued his hit streak to take down yet another record.

How critical is this to Zac Gallen’s narrative about being an ace? Haven’t we seen the Diamondbacks come back before like this? And has anyone ever come back to win when trailing 3-1 in the World Series?

Patrick Lyons hosts the DNVR Rockies Podcast as Derek Montilla of PHNX Dbacks shares his expertise on how GM Mike Hazen rebuilt Arizona following the 2018 and so quickly in the wake of losing 110 games in 2021.

Max Scherzer hopes to regain his Hall of Fame form for the Texas Rangers in Game 3 of the 2023 World Series against the Arizona Diamondbacks. In the other dugout is rookie Brandon Pfaadt, who has pitched remarkably well this postseason. Will Torey Lovullo have more confidence on Monday night at Chase Field than Bruce Bochy?

Can Corbin Carroll match a record set during the first ever World Series? Did Merrill Kelly become an ace overnight? Should Adolís Garcia get the Barry Bonds treatment?

Patrick Lyons hosts the DNVR Rockies Podcast and welcomes Danielle Cortez of PHNX to discuss the D-backs wild ride before previewing Game 3.
