The Colorado Rockies finished their first week and have scored 26 total runs. While that sounds like a good amount, 14 of those runs came in Monday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Otherwise, they’ve been held to 12 total runs and have been held to three or fewer runs in every other game. They’re 1-4 in one-score games. That said, there have been a few optimistic moments, such as Chase Dollander’s and TJ Rumfield’s opening weeks. Ezequiel Tovar also has a hit in each of their first eight games. But they’re also averaging 11.38 strikeouts per game — they have only have two games with single-digit strikeouts.
