Cartoon for WoodyPaige.com, a leading online platform for sports commentary in the United States and abroad.
For a team that nearly everyone gave up for dead at the beginning of the 2021, this Colorado Rockies team has lately shown surprising MLB life.

April was abysmal, confirming initial Rockies fan fears in the wake of what seemed a lopsided trade of future Hall of Famer Nolan Arenado. That month's 9-17 record was followed by an 11-17 record in May. Teams around the league licked their lips in anticipation of taking on the Purple Punching Bag, especially when they played away. Their 6-33 record away from Coors Field set a new low for he worst start for a team in the live-ball era. A 100-loss season felt like a solid bet.

June's 14-13 record hardly stopped the bleeding; opponents gave the Rockies about as much respect as their hapless mascot, Dinger. But the last two months have shown greater consistency and more wins, so that reaching respectability (.500) is a real possibility. On August 21, the club was nine games away from that significant threshold.

It's been a combination of things that has helped the team evolve into something the league has to take more seriously, including pitching (German Marquez among others), hitting (C.J. Cron), and some deft in-game management.

With a little more time and growth, who knows what this team might grow into?
