Rockies Fail to Rally as 2003 Worth of Woes Persist
Colorado’s 2003 season ended with a 74-88 record after a late slide from 65-79, a stark contrast to a strong home 49-32 mark. The payroll pressure tightens as six players are already locked in for 2004 and Payton’s return remains uncertain. Todd Helton narrowly missed the NL batting title with .35849, adding a bright note to a bleak year.
