The Colorado Rockies are set to resume their season with a six-game homestand starting Friday against the Cincinnati Reds and Washington Nationals. Entering the second half at 39-59, they hold last place in the NL West, three games behind the San Francisco Giants. The Rockies’ recent performance has been inconsistent, with a 4-6 record in their last 10 games, hampered by a poor showing in their last series against the Giants. To improve their standings, Colorado will need strong outings from their starting pitchers and continued contributions from young players such as Hunter Goodman, who is part of the NL All-Star team. The Rockies must capitalize on their home games at Coors Field to gain momentum going forward.
