Summary: The only all-Rockies podcast out there. Maybe. We think, anyway. Who knows.
Podcasts:
We're number one! We're number one! We're number one! With Tuesday's loss and a Texas Rangers win, YOUR Colorado Rockies are officially the worst team in Major League Baseball. So hey, progress! Tyler and Anthony talk about that and take some listener questions. Plus, a discussion with James Smyth, sports researcher and in-booth statistician for the YES Network about what it's like to actually be that guy for a major league broadcast.
With four weeks to go in the minor league season, we're going prospect-heavy on Episode 21. Tyler and Anthony give you some names to watch out for coming down the pike (or pipe...whichever) from the 2014 draft plus an update on the Rockies' top prospects. We're also taking LISTENER QUESTIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME ZOMFG. And a discussion of Tulo's latest comments to our good pal Nick Groke of the Post. Oh, also there's a pretty lengthy discussion on what constitutes a sandwich and what doesn't. So...you know, there's that, too.

Purple Dinosaur Podcast keeps plugging along despite the Rockies' May and June collapse. Colorado is 3-14 over its last 17 games. Eddie Butler's out. Michael Cuddyer's out. Carlos Gonzalez is out. Prospect Daniel Winkler is headed for Tommy John. Fun, right? But on this week's show, we'll hear from prospect Tyler Matzek ahead of his MLB debut Wednesday night. Plus an interview with Rockies reliever Adam Ottavino and more!
It's a week to look to the future on Episode 12 of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast.

We're tackling hard-hitting issues in Episode 11 of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast, such as: what, exactly, is the second line behind "JOSIE'S ON A VACATION FAAAAR AAAWAY" in Charlie Blackmon's walk-up song? Plus, we chat with Nick Groke about the Rockies' next move in the rotation, Tyler Matzek, possible trade rumblings, and more. It's a full-length episode this week! So, for that, we apologize for the hour and seven minutes you'll waste on it!
In an abbreviated edition of this week's show that we're only posting because all of you showed us SO MUCH TWITTER LOVE, we talk about how fun it feels to be observing meaningful games in late May and the need to pump the brakes on all this Gray/Butler speculation.
