The Colorado Rockies mark the 30th anniversary of Coors Field under disappointing circumstances, as their current season highlights significant offensive struggles. With a $21 million payroll reduction and key injuries, they have one of the worst batting averages and slugging percentages in franchise history. Despite being a historically hitter-friendly ballpark, the Rockies' current performance is lackluster, with low scoring games prevailing. This anticipated celebration stands in stark contrast to the teamâs offensive woes, removing excitement from their franchise milestone.
The Rockies are off to franchise record-worst starts in terms of batting average (.255), slugging percentage (.431) and strikeout rate (27.9%). This is particularly concerning given last year's 24.7% strikeout rate.
As the Rockies celebrate the 30th anniversary of Coors Field, their lack of offensive firepower has diminished the excitement for fans, especially in a hitter-friendly park.
