Why it matters
The Rockies have struggled to maintain competitiveness on the field, becoming only the fifth MLB franchise in history to suffer through four consecutive 100-loss seasons.

The players
Colorado Rockies
The Colorado Rockies are a professional baseball team based in Denver that competes in the National League West division.
The details
The team has allowed a total of 4,849 runs across the last five seasons, including a high of 1,021 runs in 2025. They remain the first team in major league history to post the highest ERA in five straight seasons while concurrently losing at least 100 games for four years in a row.
Timeline

The 2023 season resulted in a 59-103 record and 957 runs allowed.
During 2024, the club went 61-101 and allowed 929 runs.
The 2025 season saw the franchise go 43-119 while allowing 1,021 runs.
The 2026 season concluded with a 58-103 record and 940 runs allowed.
Season Trajectory
This prolonged period of struggle places the franchise among the rarest historical examples of sustained losing in professional baseball. It marks a significant departure from competitive league standards, underscoring the depth of the team's ongoing roster and pitching challenges.
The team concludes the season with a cumulative 221-423 record over the last four years, which complicates future roster development and payroll planning. The five-year streak of having the highest ERA in the league suggests fundamental issues that will influence upcoming scouting and free agency decisions.
The takeaway
The sustained pattern of record-setting poor performance over half a decade indicates that the franchise faces significant structural obstacles to returning to playoff contention. Addressing the team's defensive and pitching vulnerabilities remains the primary task for the organization moving into the offseason.
