So Colorado's last 8 days shows something that has hurt Colorado this year. When they've gotten hot- they have never gained ground on whoever it was they were competing with...

Colorado 6-2 last 8 games- 4 each with the Dodgers and D'backs. Arizona went 4-3 and was already going into the period 7.5 games up so only lost 1.5 of those games....

But Milwaukee in period was 5-1 and St Louis went 5-2 in the period. And now Colorado is only 2.5 games up on both of them and 2 in the loss column with 15-16 games to go. And with the schedule the way it is with the Brewers and Cards both playing Cubs(who are 0.5 games up on Rockies and 3 games up on Brewers/Cards)- Central team chasing Colorado will be getting better as we go on here guaranteed.
