The Colorado Rockies have been in a pitching rut for the past six seasons, and as we head into 2025, the same old narrative seems to be playing out. The team is banking on the health and performance of familiar faces like Kyle Freeland, Germán Márquez, and Antonio Senzatela, but can we really expect a return to their 2018 form?

Let’s take a moment to compare the Rockies' starting rotation to their NL West rivals. The Dodgers, Giants, Padres, and Diamondbacks have all shown a willingness to adapt and evolve their pitching staff, while the Rockies seem to be clinging to a past that hasn’t yielded results. With a staggering 35 different starting pitchers used since 2019 and a collective ERA of 5.41, it’s clear that something needs to change.

Here’s where the conversation gets interesting: Should the Rockies continue to rely on their current rotation, or is it time to shake things up and bring in fresh talent? What bold moves could they make to revitalize their pitching staff?

Moreover, how do you think the Rockies' approach to their rotation compares to the strategies of the other teams in the division? Are they falling behind in a division that’s constantly evolving?

Let’s hear your thoughts! Do you believe in the potential of the current roster, or are you ready to see a complete overhaul? What are your predictions for the Rockies' pitching performance in 2025?
