Today, we are not going to discuss Rockies trade rumors. Call it a day of rest from imagining Trevor Story or Nolan Arenado in other uniforms. Instead, let’s consider other players in Rockies uniforms.
Friday was the 40-man roster deadline and the non-tender deadline comes on Wednesday (see the offseason calendar here for more info), which means the fringes of team’s rosters are taking shape. It’s easy to dismiss this as inconsequential shuffling but considering how much the lack of depth—especially in the bullpen—hurt the Rockies the past two years, as well as the implied budget limitations, it would behoove the team to see where they can make meaningful changes on said fringes.
