Okay, okay, I know - they’re done, but…

I know I’m just getting my hopes up to have them absolutely smashed by reality, BUT…

The Rockies get set to play two series against the top two teams in the division. They’re currently nine games back, with little chance at making the post season at all - BUT…if the Rox could find a way to sweep both the Padres and the Dodgers, or maybe lose only one game in the course of the two series, they could pull themselves back to around 5 or 6 games back of the division - and then they play four games against the Nationals.

I’m not saying Washington is bad, but the last time the Rockies played a 4-game set with the DC Boys, they won all of them. The Nationals have been playing better since then, but they’re still not a great team, and apparently Frank Robinson is the most-hated manager in the majors as voted by the players. So what am I saying? If the Rockies are going to try to magically salvage the season with a streak of some sort, this is the last chance they have to do it.

So, we’ll find out tonight at 8:40 if I’m just a useless optomist or if there might actually be some of this hope thing I’ve got.
