Entering the 2025 season, Michael Toglia seemed primed to finally solve the riddle of first base for the Colorado Rockies. Since 2014, the first season following the retirement of Hall of Famer Todd Helton, 41 different players have logged innings at first base. By contrast, the team used 57 first basemen in their first 20 years of existence.

New month, same Rockies. The Colorado Rockies lost 5-3 against the New York Mets in Queens this morning. It was a homer-heavy affair on both side, but the Mets came out on top. The result was negative — 50 losses before 10 wins isn’t exactly something to hang your hat on — but there were some positives that came out of the game, including making it another close one for the sixth time in seven games.

We’ve officially made it, folks. It’s officially June 1st and the Colorado Rockies are still looking for their elusive 10th win of the season. They remain 9-49 on the entire season, and are 3-27 on the road. They are 0-5 on this current road trip with a three-game set against the Miami Marlins set to start tomorrow to conclude it. To be fair, four of the five losses were by two or fewer runs (they lost 8-2 last night).

The Colorado Rockies (9-47) have played some more competitive games as of late, but it hasn’t exactly translated into wins, as they have lost 21 consecutive series dating back to 2024.

The pesky thing about baseball is that to win games, you have to score more runs than the opposing team. An inability to score runs has made this fact abundantly clear for the historically bad Colorado Rockies in 2025. Sitting with both the worst record in baseball and worst run differential, the Rockies' offense, which once struck fear into the hearts of opposing pitchers, is now about as threatening as my two-year-old nephew with a foam bat holding it upside down.

When the game ended in extras, the Cubs had walked off the Rockies in extras, 4-3 The first two innings saw a pitchers’ duel with Márquez and Horton working quickly and retiring batters with relative ease. That changed in the bottom of the third when the Cubs scored two runs on three hits.
