Update 6, 2014 Season
Series Against: at Philadelphia Phillies (31-18), at Cleveland Indians (29-26), vs Arizona Diamondbacks (23-36)
May 26, 2014
Team R - H - E
Colorado Rockies 9 - 14 - 0
Philadelphia Phillies 3 - 8 - 1
W: J. De La Rosa (5-3); L: A. Burnett (5-4)
Jorge Da La Rosa 7 IP 6 H 2 ER 2 BB 6 K
Another good all-around victory against a hot Phillies squad. Jorge De La Rosa continues to perform extremely well as the staff ace, and Charlie Blackmon and Corey Dickerson both chipped in home runs en rout to the victory.
May 27, 2014
Team R - H - E
Colorado Rockies 8 - 11 - 1
Philadelphia Phillies 6 - 9 - 2
W: J. Lyles (4-3); L: C. Hamels (5-2); S: M. Belisle (15)
Troy Tulowitzki 2-5 HR (14) 2 RBI (46)
A rocky 9th inning from Wilton Lopez made this game a lot closer than it had to be. Lopez surrendered 4 runs before the calming influence of Matt Belisle entered the game and shut the door on the Phillies. Charlie Blackmon homers for the second straight game.

Team R - H - E
Colorado Rockies 1 - 6 - 0
Philadelphia Phillies 2 - 8 - 0
W: K. Kendrick (4-5); L: T. Chatwood (1-3); S: J. Papelbon
Kyle Kendrick 8.1 IP 6 H 1 ER 0 BB 3 K
A great pitchers duel that we unfortunately had to lose. Kyle Kendrick was automatic nearly the entire game, but Tyler Chatwood went stride for stride with him the entire way. All-in-all I am happy with taking two in Philadelphia.

Team R - H - E
Colorado Rockies 1 - 4 - 0
Cleveland Indians 6 - 9 - 1
W: V. Pestano (2-1); L: J. Nicasio (3-3); S: C. Allen (4)
Ryan Raburn 3-4 HR (13) 3 RBI (44)
The second straight game where our offense was sub-par. Juan Nicasio was pitching pretty well until he broke down in the 8th, giving up 4 runs in that inning. Nicasio's ERA inflates to 5.01 on the season.
May 31, 2014
Team R - H - E
Colorado Rockies 12 - 14 - 0
Cleveland Indians 0 - 4 - 0
W: J. Chacin (5-2); L: C. Kluber (2-5)
D.J. LeMahieu 3-4 2 2B 4 RBI (14)
Jhoulys Chacin pitched extremely well, but it was the Rockies bats which were the story of this game. Led by D.J. LeMahieu, the Rockies woke up after being caught asleep the prior two games. On a side note, LeMahieu has been performing well this year, and I am starting to consider moving him in order to bolster my bullpen, which is ranked 14th in the National League.
June 1, 2014
Team R - H - E
Colorado Rockies 0 - 4 - 0
Cleveland Indians 7 - 11 - 0
W: Z. McAllister (3-2); L: J. De La Rosa (5-4)
Zach McAlister 9 IP 4 H 0 ER 2 BB 4 K
Another poor all-around performance today. Jorge De La Rosa had one of his less memorable starts of the year, and the offense was held to less than one run for the third time in the last four games. Time to travel back home to start a three game set with the Diamondbacks.
June 3, 2014
Team R - H - E
Arizona Diamondbacks 3 - 5 - 3
Colorado Rockies 9 - 9 - 2
W: T. Chatwood (2-3); L: R. Delgado (3-5)
Wilin Rosario 3-4 2B HR (9) RBI (28)
This offense continues to be incredibly streaky, now having scored 9 runs in two of the last three games (to go with their one run or less in four of the last six...). Wilin Rosario was fantastic today, and Tyler Chatwood continues to piece together productive starts.
June 4, 2014
Team R - H - E
Arizona Diamondbacks 2 - 8 - 0
Colorado Rockies 6 - 10 - 1
W: J. Lyles (5-3); L: T. Cahill (3-7)
Jordan Lyles 8 IP 7 H 2 ER 0 BB 6 K
5 runs through the first two innings was enough to propel the Rockies past the Diamondbacks. Jordan Lyles had a solid day on the mound, earning his 5th win of huge 2014 campaign.
June 5, 2014
Team R - H - E
Arizona Diamondbacks 5 - 9 - 1
Colorado Rockies 9 - 12 - 0
W: W. Lopez (3-2); L: W. Miley (2-7)
Nolan Arenado 2-4 HR (5) RBI (35)
A 7-run 7th was enough to catapult the Rockies to victory and a sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The offensive attack was well-balanced, with 5 different Rockies driving in runs.
