Falling Behind Early
May 1st, 2014
W - 9 / L - 12 / GB - 5.5
It was not as good of a first month as the Colorado Rockies had hoped for as they went 9-12 in the month while the Dodgers and Diamondbacks are both playing very well to start the season. The starting pitching has not been good for the Rockies as only one pitcher has recorded wins and that is Tommy Milone who has a 3.00 ERA and Felix Doubront has not won a game but has an ERA of 2.45. SP Juan Nicasio has been terrible to start the season starting 4 games and only recording 12 innings in those 4 games with a 15.32 ERA so far.
On the offensive side of the ball CF Dexter Fowler has been a dissapointment hitting just .135 in the month of May but have gotten great months from Wilin Rosario and Michael Cuddyer. 40 Year 1B Todd Helton continues to play better than many expect having a .396 OBP this month.
