According to Ken Rosenthal https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/live-blogs/mlb-trade-deadline-2024-live-news-rumors-deals/fCu0bE7zDOmA/, Nick Mears was tipping his pitches for at least 6 weeks without the Rockies staff catching it.
“I would say I’ve definitely had a few implosion innings,” said Mears, who had a 5.56 ERA in 41 games with Colorado. “But it also doesn’t help that I was tipping pitches for a month and a half and I was never told.”
It took a player on another team letting him know for him to work it out. This is yet another damning piece of info on the coaching staff's ineptitude. smh

Unbelievable
Total clown organization from the owner to the inept on-field product.
Is this really a surprise to anyone?
Imagine being Bud Black right now, all-star pitcher and manager, and thinking you’re competent at your job
What a joke. Wonder what it was
a season too forget only get’s more interesting. but imagine what it would be like to have a competent owner, gm, and manager. 6 winning seasons in 30 years is disheartening. what is worse is the win/lose result the the past 3 seasons. with this year on a path to break a record of most loses in a season of 103.
Can’t wait to watch him become a dominant reliever with the Brewers. Feels like Hoffman where as soon as he got off the Rockies he became one of the best relievers in baseball.
Extremely on brand for this franchise.
