Purple Row Radio - 12/6/11

Welcome back to Purple Row Radio! On this edition, Andrew and I are once again joined by Paul Agnello (Resolution) to catch up on the offseason so far.

- What do we think of the Chris Iannetta/Tyler Chatwood trade?
- Where does Chatwood fit into an already complicated array of young pitching depth?
- The Ty Wigginton trade.
- Looking ahead to the Winter Meetings.- What is up with all of these multiyear deals?
- Which, if any, of Huston Street, Ian Stewart and Seth Smith will still be Rockies at the end of the week?


We recorded this podcast last night, before Kevin Slowey was signed, so nothing on that for now.

Purple Row Radio - 10/24/11

Welcome to this postseason edition of Purple Row Radio!

On this edition, Andrew and I are joined by Purple Row comment favorite Resolution to discuss the following topics and more:

- Who do each of us want to see win the World Series?
- Why is it so difficult for some to move past the disappointing 2011 Colorado season?
- Greg breaks down the roster moves made thus far, and explains why at least one more round of cuts is going to be necessary before we can even worry about the tender deadline.
- Who are the obvious trade candidates, and who else is a likely departure from the Rockies headed into next year?
- Do you need teeth to eat a soul?

Purple Row Radio - 9/29/11

Welcome back to this special edition of Purple Row Radio, celebrating the merciful end to the Rockies 2011 season.
On this edition, Andrew and I discuss the following topics and more:

- Why this season ranks for us amongst the worst in Rockies history, even if the final record doesn't reflect it.
- How does the late-September collapse of 2011 mirror 2010's, and how do they differ?
- Why does Andrew think Jim Tracy's choices regarding the playing time of certain players is one of the most significant 2011 issues that was actually avoidable?
- Why does Greg want to purge this season from everyone's mind (the fans as well as the team) and ensure everyone moves on as quickly as possible?
- The surprising downfall of Ubaldo Jimenez.
- Why the Rockies should be pleased with the seasons of Troy Tulowitzki, Calos Gonzalez and Todd Helton.

We'll be back sometime after the divisional series for a postseason show.

Purple Row Radio - 9/14/11

Hey all, we've got another podcast uploaded at last. Unfortunately, it remains difficult to get these uploaded correctly.

On this edition, Andrew and I discuss the following topics and more:
- Our impressions of certain September callups.
- What were Andrew's impressions of Drew Pomeranz' start?
- What are the chances Pomeranz will make the team straight out of Spring Training 2012? What factors work for or against this?
- What will be Jordan Pacheco's role with the Rockies going forward?
- Why is Wilin Rosario's 2012 fate still so unclear?

Purple Row Radio - 8/29/11 Part Two

Part two of the August 29th episode.

Purple Row Radio - 8/16/11 Part One

This podcast gets harder and harder to produce with regularity. We're still not sure if an episode will happen next week. If something big happens, probably. If not, then doubtful.

Regardless, here's a two part podcast once again for the time being. A day late (contrary to what I say in the show, they are clearly still having upload issues).

On this edition, Andrew and I discuss the following topics and more:
- Las Vegas.
- Why Andrew likes Jason Giambi even though his roster spot still doesn't make a ton of sense.
- The signings of Kevin Millwood and J.C. Romero.
- How do Millwood and Romero compare to previous Rockies late season signings?
- The signing of Tyler Anderson.
- How is Anderson's presumed position in the organization different now compared to when he was drafted? Hint: Jimenez trade.
- The quick healing of Juan Nicasio, something to be glad about during this time of a rotten season.
