Colorado Rockies Power Rankings - 2012
| Power Ranking | ||||
| WEEK | RECORD | RANK | COMMENT | |
| Week 8 | 15-25 | 27 | It's been a miserable May for the Rockies. They're 4-14 in the month, pushing them into the basement of the NL West. -- ESPN.com | |
| Week 7 | 13-20 | 26 | In the six games at Coors Field before leaving on their current road trip, the Rockies were 2-4 and were outscored 43-39. Fans screamed pitching problems. In the Rockies' six most recent games -- all away from Coors -- the team is 1-5 and has been outscored 28-18. Now the fans are screaming (again) for Jim Tracy's job. -- Travis Lay: Blake Street Bulletin | |
| Week 6 | 12-15 | 17 | The Rockies lead the NL in home runs and are third in runs scored. On the flip side, the Rockies' pitching has allowed the most runs and home runs in the NL. It's no wonder the team hovers around .500. -- Travis Lay: Blake Street Bulletin | |
| Week 5 | 10-11 | 18 | Jamie Moyer isn't the only Rockie defying Father Time. After his game-tying, pinch-hit grand slam on Sunday, 38-year-old Todd Helton leads the Rockies with a .939 OPS. He is also tied for the team lead in home runs, RBIs and walks despite just 63 plate appearances. -- Logan Burdine: Blake Street Bulletin | |
| Week 4 | 8-7 | 19 | Rockies fans are feeling good after winning two of three on the road in Milwaukee, and the team is in second place in the NL West. With the team headed to Pittsburgh to start the week, the good times should continue to roll. -- Travis Lay: Blake Street Bulletin | |
| Week 3 | 4-5 | 19 | The Rockies' rotation was a known weakness heading into the season and so far it has been worse than imagined. Through the team's first nine games, the starting pitcher has lasted more than six innings only twice (both came opening weekend in Houston). -- Travis Lay: Blake Street Bulletin | |
| Week 2 | 1-2 | 18 | Jamie Moyer is old, we get it. This is the big leagues, and his advanced age doesn't give him a free pass to stink. In his past 14 IP (including spring training), he has allowed 29 baserunners and 11 runs (seven earned). That's 29 baserunners versus 42 outs. That's a 1.86 WHIP, 4.50 ERA and 5.52 FIP. -- Travis Lay: Blake Street Bulletin | |
| Week 1 | 0-0 | 18 | After a largely disappointing 2011 season, the Rockies have no expectations for 2012. Their season hinges on a pitching staff full of unknowns. One thing is for certain: The Rockies' offense will need to shoulder most of the load in 2012. -- Travis Lay: Blake Street Bulletin | |
