Trending: The Rockies were pacing toward one of the worst offenses in MLB history when Bud Black was fired May 11 after the team’s 7-33 start. Colorado was 10-25 under interim manager Warren Schaeffer after returning home Friday from a 4-3 road trip. And there have been signs of life from the Rockies’ bats, particularly in the power department. The team’s triple slash line was .218/.285/.359 on the day of the managerial change, and the Rockies were 27th or worse in all three categories. Colorado began Friday with a .235/.296/.405 slash line in Schaffer’s first 35 games. The .405 slugging percentage is 16th in the majors during that span. Colorado is 16th in home runs (39), tied for 11th in doubles (56) and first in triples (14) during Schaeffer’s tenure.
