It was well documented in the offseason that the Rockies spent $106 million building a “super bullpen” to complement their young starting rotation. The plan was to get 6-7 innings out of the starters before turning things over to Jake McGee, Bryan Shaw, and Wade Davis. The season has not panned out this way on either end.
With the MLB trade deadline fast approaching and the Rockies only being a few games out of first place, it might be time for the Rockies to start thinking about making a trade.
