Painting the Rockies’ season by the numbers, entering Saturday’s game vs. Arizona. Fair warning, it’s not a pretty picture. by psaundersdp
Number of home runs hit by Kris Bryant, the club’s $182 million left fielder. Bryant has gone 132 regular-season at-bats without a homer, the longest drought of his career. In fact, Bryan has hit just two regular-season home runs since last August. Bryant, however, did hit a home run against the Dodgers in the National League Division Series last fall.
Bryant’s injured back has clearly set him back this season and he has yet to show any semblance of the power that enticed the Rockies to sign him.Home run pace for right fielder/designated hitter Charlie Blackmon, who turned 36 on Friday. Blackmon hit just 13 home runs all of last season. Blackmon’s bounce-back season is a testament to his passion and work ethic.Home run pace for C.J. Cron, which would top the career-high 30 homers he slugged for Tampa Bay in 2018.
