Instead, Tulowitzki went to the instructional league in Arizona. This rubbed some people the wrong way, but Tulowitzki said he simply wasn't ready for the big leagues. In an interview with Troy Renck of the Denver Post, Tulowitzki said his groin injury and his recovery prevented him from returning to the Major League club. He said he could tell by the way he was playing in the instructional league games that he wasn't ready to return to the Rockies' lineup. However, the Rockies' shortstop says he will be ready for 2013. "I am not ready for the big-league environment," Tulowitzki said. "I will be, but right now wasn't the time."

This MLB Mohawk is Intense

This guy showed up for the Colorado Rockies vs. Arizona Diamondbacks game last night and clearly won the hairdo of the year.  Seriously it looks like a pro did it for him.  Not saying I would do the same thing, but damn if I don't respect it.  Not to mention the game didn't mean anything in terms of playoffs.
