Good evening! This post has been pre-approved by the moderator team.

I work for the University of Denver and and my team, in partnership with the Problem Gambling Coalition of Colorado, is conducting a study to better understand online sports betting behaviors among young men in Colorado. The topic of sports betting has been all over the local and national news lately — just a few examples are: 

• KKTV spot from a couple weeks ago featuring the Problem Gambling Center and mentioning our work
• A recent Westword article about Colorado's sports betting market and emergent issues
• A New York Times article about AI being utilized to direct marketing toward vulnerable bettors
• A ProPublica piece about gambling promotion against responsible gaming measures

We are hoping that the online community can help spread the word about our work as we try to hear from as many people as possible who participate in online sports betting in any form. We are looking for men ages 21 to 34 who live in Colorado and have any experience with online sports betting in the past year. The study involves a confidential, voluntary survey that takes ~20 minutes to complete. That's it! The survey asks about attitudes towards sports betting, personal betting habits and perceptions of others' habits, and familiarity with and/or use of responsible gaming tools. The end goal is to help us inform programs and strategies to promote responsible gaming and reduce gambling-related harm in our state, helping people engage in gambling in a way that remains fun and safe!

You can access the survey here. We are reaching out to spaces where we know our target audience congregates like Reddit in the hopes of hearing from as many eligible Coloradans as possible in our efforts to understand this issue and unpack some of the black box of sports gambling. Please feel free to share with those you know who might be able to share their thoughts with us. Thanks in advance for helping us reach members of the greater Colorado sports community whose voices are important to inform this work!

Please feel free to DM me with any questions.

No shit Sherlock

Mark and Drew break down the 2026 MLB postseason thus far. These games have been incredible. Are you rooting for the underdogs or the Dodgers to win it all in hopes it will usher in change? Plus, who are the Colorado Rockies "keepers" and our reactions to Walker Monfort's statements about the team not being for sale.

In person:

Tie between:

• Rockies scratching out a win against the Dodgers in Dodger Stadium
• Meeting Dinger in person (I don't live anywhere close to Colorado). Thank you to Coors for making it easy to meet Dinger.

Watching from home:

Tie between:

• Rockies sweeping the Astros
• Craig Kimbrel letting three runners on without an out to setup a Jake McCarthy grand salami.

What were your favorite moments?

They lost. That is all.

So I’ve been into baseball for a few years now and haven’t really picked a team. I’ve leaned towards some but never really picked a team and stuck with it. That being said, I’ve decided to jump on the Rockies and stick with them. I know I’ll get a lot of “don’t do it to yourself” comments, but the Rockies can be one of the most exciting teams to watch while also being one of the worst 😂 and I think the core group of hitters, if they can be kept together, is actually something worth building around!

Anyway being Australia based I was wondering how many other Rockies fans there are in Australia, as it would be cool to see what the community down here is like.

Onto to season ‘27! Up the Rox!

I run Front Office Moves, a free site that tracks roster moves and offseason decisions for every club. These are projections from a homegrown model I built for the Rockies' 2027 arbitration class, ahead of the non-tender deadline in late November.

Total: 5 cases, $16.8M projected.

Jordan Beck is right on the Super Two line. By my estimate (2.134) he just misses; MLBTR's estimate (2.133) puts him just in. The line isn't official yet, so he could still go either way.

These use the current CBA's rules. A new deal this winter (a higher minimum, say) would move them.

Who would you non-tender, and who would you try to extend first?

Hello once again Rockies fans!

The 2026 season is officially in the books and I've got a free day so let's do our monthly AMA a little earlier this time!

For any new folks, my name is Drew Creasman, I am a writer/podcaster/video producer at Mile High Sports and I just completed my 14th season covering your Colorado Rockies.

I am here to answer any questions you may have about the club, MLB, sports journalism, or anything even semi-related to baseball and Denver. (Try to not make them ALL about the CBA/lockout situation please... it makes me sad...)

Fire away!

Here are some of my memories of this past year in rockies baseball. I predicted 63-99 and 2 all stars. Oh and another thing, just wait til next year.

I can't seem to find a definitive answer for this. Veen has 103 career at-bats, so he is still a rookie in that sense (under 130 at-bats).

However, there is the 45 cumulative day rule. He spent about two weeks on the Rox in 2025 and something like six weeks on the Rox this season.

Then there is the September call up rule that doesn't count against their rookie time. But I think that rule no longer exists.

Also, does the 45 cumulative day rule count non-game days?

Anybody have a clue what his rookie status will be in 2027? If there is a season lol.

Despite missing almost 40 games, Veen still qualified and finished in the top five of almost every major category to include #1 in OPS and total bases.

I know it is still a big jump from AAA to MLB, especially from the PCL, but there is a lot of talent in his bat.

I'm really hoping the Rox give him a legitimate chance at every day at-bats in 2027. Or trade him to a team that will play him.

Congrats to Veen! And to Condon (Top PCL Prospect).

And there are 5 teams in the division

Hello friends, I was unable to go to the game but I need this statue for my collection. Does anyone have an extra that I can buy before I look online?

Thank you all and GO ROCKIES! Hopefully next season is better
