After being swept at Coors Field by the Milwaukee Brewers, the Colorado Rockies (24-42) will look to get back in the win column as they welcome the Chicago Cubs (34-32) for a three-game stand.
But first — in case you were offline this afternoon — the Rockies promoted Cole Carrigg (No. 4 PuRP) today, and he’ll be starting tonight in center field. Watch this:
Very, very cool.
In his first MLB game, Carrigg (and the other Rockies) will be facing Cubs starter Colin Rea. This will be his 14th start for the Cubs in 2026.
The righty has a 4.59 ERA in 62.2 IP. He’s struck out 52, walked 22, and given up nine home runs. Rea has a 1.35 WHIP.
Taking the mound for the Rockies will be RHP Tomoyuki Sugano (菅野 智之).
Currently, he has an ERA of 3.98 in 63.1 IP. He’s struck out 36 while giving up 18 walks and 11 home runs with a 1.26 WHIP.
And now to the details.
