• Can the Colorado Rockies replicate the Royals’ success?

Isaiah J. Downing-USA TODAY Sports Colorado Rockies news and links for Tuesday, August 27, 2024 It seems so familiar. A year ago, the question was whether the 103-loss Colorado Rockies could replicate the success of the World Series-bound Arizona Diamondbacks. After all, the D-backs had gone from a 52-110 record in 2021 to a title run in 2023. Quick rebuilds were possible, the conventional...2024
