The weekend is a great time to kick back and reflect. This Week in Purple is the place to catch up on the news from our team at Purple Row. You’ll find links to Rockpiles and other content below as well as a platform for community discussion in the comments.
Pitchers and catchers report in just about a month, and we can finally get on with the 2026 season. The 2025 offseason has been a busy one for the Rockies, but if you’re anything like me, you’re excited to see how everyone “walks the walk” after
talking the talk for most of it.
The Purple Row staff has remained busy so far, and here’s what we wrote about this week:
