It looks like Sox and Rocks is asleep at the wheel, so seeing as how my fantasy team has four Rockies starters, I may as well start this thread.
The Rockies have started 20-14, and have the best differential in baseball (+37) thus far. Tulo is absolutely destroying the ball, hitting .408 with a 1.298 OPS thus far. He was named player of the month in April and has started May by going 10 for 15 with 2 HR and a 1.856. If he can stay healthy, this could be an MVP year for him. The big surpise has been the resurgence of Justin Morneau, who has been MIA for about the last five years, but has thus far put up a .963 with 7 HR. We'll see if he can stay healthy and keep it up. Pleasant suprise number two is Charlie Blackmon: .988 OPS and 6 HR. Cuddyer was allso looking good at the plate until landing on the DL.
On the pitching side, young Jordan Lylse looks like he may have taken the next step, going 4-0 thus far, with a 3.43 era and a 24:10 K:BB. The Rockies' 5-man rotation has 130 K to 55 BB. Definitely what you want to see for a Colorado staff.
