Did the Rockies really win the 2007 NL Pennant?

... might have missed the sole glory this franchise will ever have. So today I pose the question to Rockies fans... what was the lasting effect of the 2007 pennant? Folks at Rockies World... do you see more people pumped up and knowing the names of the players? Hey Rockies Home, what do you think was the fluke? The pennant or this downturn? Do the folks at Rox Head really think this is the worst Rockies team ever? Does everyone at Purple Row still wear their 2007 gear with pride? Are all Rockie fans like Mark at Bad ...

Back to baseball: Rockies return to action
Published 7/17/2008 by Tom Stephenson at Up in the Rockies
... To get one thing out of the way: Finishing the season at .500 would require the Rockies to play at a .636 clip the rest of the way, and there’s been nothing this season to suggest that this team can play at that kind of clip over two and a half months. Some of the folks at Purple Row are holding out hope based on the fact that the Rockies only play four games against a team with a winning record the rest of the season, a four-game set against the Marlins at the end of this month. But that ignores the fact that the Rockies are 21-28 against teams with losing records ...

Those three games will be against the Rockies, who are coming to Shea after the Mets made two trips out to Coors earlier in the year. Once again, the Rockies went on a long losing streak immediately after their last series against the Mets, getting swept by both the Royals and Tigers, but they are playing better as of late, having won seven of their last ten games.

I ran across at least five blogs that have stopped posting in recent weeks. So what does that leave us? Well, there's the obligatory SBN blog known as Purple Row, the MVN blog known as Up in the Rockies, some that are never updated (including this one that apparently quit after a post called "Uninspired", and some that are just a series of links. ...

Here's a blog post about baseball I found from May 14: "Alright, I'll admit I've got pent up issues stemming from yesterday to deal with here. I'm going to try to keep them buried for as long as I can, but I can't promise that this post won't veer off into NSFW or children language...Seriously, yesterday's loss caused me some real angst. I'm talking PTSD angst." Oof, not good. Fans are riled up. Thing is, that's a fan from May 14, 2007. A Rockies fan. Last May 14, the Rockies were coming off a 15-2 loss to the Giants. They ...

... in the thin air of Denver. Hill is 0-2, 11.32 at Coors Field in his career, the only starts he's made against the Rox.
Franklin Morales (he doesn't look too happy in that picture, does he?) hasn't been a paragon of control this season (11 walks in 15 innings), and the Cubs have been patient hitters this year, so perhaps they can get the bases clogged up with runners tonight. Morales is making his first career start against the Cubs.
