Blake Street Bombers II

For a team that plays half its games in a stadium where three-run homers are as easy as to by as drafts of Coors Light, the Rockies are oddly obsessed with power.

We'll see if we can match the real life Rockies of reaching the playoffs using OOTP 6.51a with Parth's 2007 Opening Day Roster.

Hope you follow this game-by-game dynasty.

Projected Lineup:

CF Willy Taveras - Speed atop the dangerous lineup
SS Troy Tulowitzki - Top '05 draft pick beat out former starter Clint Barmes
1B Todd Helton - .329 avg. since 2000 best in baseball
LF Matt Holliday - .326-34-114 in breakout '06
RF Brad Hawpe - Great spring -- .315 and team-high five HRs
3B Garrett Atkins - Had 102 hits in the second half last year
C Chris Iannetta - Release of Javy Lopez meant job was his
2B Kaz Matsui - More speed and good bat control

Projected Rotation:

Jeff Francis - Lanky lefty has added a sinker to his repertoire
Rodrigo Lopez - MLB-high 18 losses last year with Baltimore
Jason Hirsh - 9-3, 3.71 ERA w/ HOU last year
Byung-Hyun Kim - Enough said
Brian Lawrence - 7-15, 4.83 ERA w/ SD last year

Closer:

Brian Fuentes - Two-time All-Star with 61 overall saves past two years

* I signed as the manager for 1 year worth $475,000. The owner expects just .500 ball. But he's a horror type, uncontrollable - so, who knows.

I wonder if you can get power into that lineup. Should be interesting.

Well, I already made a new dynasty. This time, it's the Pirates.
