Monday through Wednesday: Rockies at Dodger Stadium

Friday through July 5: Padres at San Diego

Dodgers fans might look past the Rockies in anticipation of Friday, when Manny Ramirez is expected to make his return in San Diego. But the Dodgers themselves are plenty wary of the Rockies, the hottest team in the majors over the last three weeks. The teams previously met in the last week of May, when the Dodgers outscored the Rockies, 31-13. Colorado fired Clint Hurdle before he could manage another game, and the Rockies won 19 of their first 25 games under former Dodgers manager Jim Tracy. To the Dodgers, Angels and every other team looking for a reliever and calling about Huston Street: Hang up, at least for now.
