Colorado Rockies Gear for the Upcoming Colorado Rockies Season

The Colorado Rockies season is fast approaching, and it's high time to invest in some new Colorado Rockies gear. Like this awesome Rockies t-shirt! I love the plum color, the vintage appeal and the sporty striping. The v-neck is a little low, but nothing a little under cami can't fix. Loves it!

Colorado Rockies Spring Training

Did you know that the OFFICIAL start of the Colorado Rockies Spring Training schedule is just around the corner? That's right, it's just a week and a half away. And with the official Colorado Rockies home opener more than a month away, a little spring roadtrip to Spring Training in Arizona is just what the doctor ordered. Sunshine, pool time and hanging out at the ballpark sounds like just the break this chick has been looking for. If you're a super Rockies fan (like me), then you definitely should be considering the same thing. Hey, a little fun in the sun is good for everybody once in a while!

Colorado Rockies: Spring Training 2012

Guess what fellow Rockies fans? It is a WEEK until the Colorado Rockies roster reports to Spring Training in Scottsdale. ONE WEEK! While word's been mum on who is predicted to make that March 3rd Spring Training opening roster, I can tell you that I'll be taking a long "spring break" weekend in March to go check out how the team is shaping up. There's just something about a little "pre-season" baseball and peanuts that gets you out of the winter dull and geared up for the summer time FUN that goes hand in hand with Rockies baseball. Speaking of Rockies baseball, now that we're almost to that April 9th Home Opener, what games are you most looking forward to this season? My list, for April.

April 9th: home opener, duh.
April 13th: The first Friday game of the season: hey-o tailgate.
April 27th: Vs. New York Mets. Loves it.

New to the Colorado Rockies Roster: Pitcher Jeremy Guthrie

Man, these last couple of weeks before Spring Training are just filled with trades and acquisitions for the Colorado Rockies roster, aren't they? Just today we nabbed pitcher Jeremy Guthrie from the Baltimore Orioles. In exchange for Guthrie, we traded out starter Jason Hammell and reliever Matt Lindstrom - oh, and did I mention that Guthrie came with a price tag of $8.2 million for this season? Because he did. But I guess that's the price you have to pay for a solid, multi-inning pitcher, right? Doesn't hurt that he's super yummy, either...

And in other news, Matt Belisle came to terms with the Colorado Rockies and will be sticking around for another couple of years - with a two year contract and $4.35 million.

Sounds like the Colorado Rockies roster is shaping up before Spring Training. Which means ROCKIES SEASON is just around the corner!
