Having a rule 5 guy throw a 5-hit shutout against you in his second career start is even more embarrassing than giving up 21 runs.

They fired Bud Black after winning their 7th game today. Not often you see a guy keep his job after back-to-back 100+ loss seasons, but it's kinda hard to argue against some kind of change when you start the following season 7-33. I don't put the blame on him, it's been pretty apparent for some time now that the Rockies are a very poorly run franchise. The Rockies pitching is awful, but the position players might be even worse. A team that plays at Coors Field is hitting .215/.283/.351 with a 71 OPS+ and 133 runs in 40 games. That they're struggling to average over 3 runs per game is pretty unfathomable.
