Pacific Fusion – Pacific Fusion announces expansion to New Mexico with new Research and Manufacturing Campus Pacific Fusion expands to Albuquerque with a $1B Research & Manufacturing Campus, while California remains home to R&D headquarters.

Pacific Fusion joins the Isotopes in Albuquerque. I'm sure they chose Albuquerque over Livermore and Alameda because the Albuquerque Isotopes are there. Wouldn't you want your nuclear fusion business to be in a town that celebrates isotopes?

Rooftop Mingle: Nolan Clifford, Rockies 2024 Draft Pick YouTube video by Rocky Mountain Rooftop

Last year we sat down with #Rockies 2024 draft pick Nolan Clifford after he made his professional debut with the #ABQTopes

Last night he was back with #ABQTopes all the way from @fresnogrizzlies.bsky.social with a difference-making triple!

He's going to be overshadowed by Karros, but Aaron Schunk has been excellent with the Triple-A #ABQTopes this season. He's hitting .300/.336/.485 with eight home runs, 10 doubles, and 4 triples. His work with the glove has been very solid as well.

I'm happy the Schunky Monkey is back!

It looks like the #Rockies will be calling up INF Aaron Schunk to the active roster. Schunk was moved from the Triple-A #ABQTopes active roster to the Taxi Squad this afternoon.

This likely means INF Orlando Arcia (elbow) will be going on the injured list.

Monday Rockpile: Michael Toglia finds himself at a crossroads Colorado Rockies news and links for Monday, August 4th, 2025

Michael Toglia came into 2025 with a de-facto starting job and high expectations. After a season long slump, Toglia has lost that starting job and perhaps the confidence of the #Rockies organization. Demoted to Triple-A #ABQTopes, he now finds himself at a crossroads. New at @purplerow.bsky.social

The #Rockies have claimed 1B Blaine Crim off waivers from the Texas Rangers and optioned him to the Triple-A #ABQTopes.

Crim, 28, has been a solid bat over the last three seasons at Triple-A Round Rock but has never made the next leap. He made his debut just before getting DFA at the deadline.
