Purple Row Radio - 8/29/11 Part One


Purple Row Radio is back. On this edition, Andrew and I discuss the following topics and more:

- Cats
- Andrew's impressions of Alex White's first start (this was recorded before White's start against Arizona).
- The balk calls on Esmil Rogers and Matt Reynolds.
- Umpires that involve themselves in the outcome of the game.
- September callup possibilities.
- How does Ian Stewart's lack of playing time at the MLB level this year relate to other players?

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.

Purple Row Radio - 8/1/11 Part One

Uploading issues continue, but we're back again. Until this issue is resolved, expect episodes to be posted sometime on Tuesdays. Once again, this episode is in two parts. They can be listened to back to back.


On this edition, Zombie Andrew and I discuss the following topics and more:
- The Denver Museum of Nature and Science.
- The trade deadline around the NL West, including discussion on Carlos Beltran, Brad Ziegler, and confusion about Trayvon Robinson.
- The Ubaldo Jimenez trade.
- What other contributions Jimenez made to the organization beyond actual game performance, including a radical change on the perception of pitchers in Coors Field.
- We break down the four new Rockies players (or three, until Drew Pomeranz can be traded in two weeks).
- Why do the two of us find it foolish that the organization wants to immediately convert Joe Gardner into a reliever?
- More on the roster crunch: who is at risk to be traded post-deadline, or let go in the offseason?
