Colorado Rockies Unveil Exciting 2027 Schedule with Key Matchups

This afternoon, the Colorado Rockies took a significant step forward in their preparations for the future by announcing their preliminary schedule for the 2027 season. With Opening Day set for March 25th, barring any interruptions from negotiations between the MLB Players Association and team owners, anticipation is already building among fans.

The Rockies will kick off the season on the road, starting with a challenging three-game series against the San Francisco Giants on the West Coast. Immediately following that, they will face the San Diego Padres in another three-game set, setting the tone for the season ahead.

On April 1st, the team returns home for a highly anticipated four-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, which marks the fifth occasion in franchise history that the Rockies will host the Dodgers for their Home Opener at Coors Field. The last time these two teams met in this setting was in 2022, where the Rockies fell short with a 5-3 loss. However, they bounced back in the next two games, winning 3-2 and 9-4, respectively.

As usual, the Rockies will face their NL West rivals 13 times throughout the season. In addition to their divisional matchups, they will engage in one home and one road series against other National League teams, alongside at least one series against each American League opponent. Notably, the New York Yankees will visit Denver for a three-game series from July 26-28, while the Chicago Cubs will make an appearance for Father’s Day weekend, June 18-20. A highlight of the summer will be the Toronto Blue Jays spending July 4th in Denver.

Besides hosting the Yankees and Blue Jays, the Rockies will also face interleague opponents at home, including the Detroit Tigers, Minnesota Twins, Houston Astros, Chicago White Sox, and Los Angeles Angels. The only home National League series in May will be against the Pittsburgh Pirates from May 17-19.

Mark your calendars for the All-Star break, which is scheduled to take place at Wrigley Field in Chicago from July 12-15. With Opening Day just 252 days away, fans are eager to know which series they are most excited about. Engage with us in the comments!
