The Rockies are a weird franchise. Time and time again we see them make baffling moves and decisions that seem to defy all logic. If you tell them to zig, more than likely they are going to zag. It’s part of the experience as a fan and sometimes makes them somewhat endearing. The Rockies also have a bizarre method of signing aging free agents, especially when it comes to pitchers.
Just this past week, it was reported that the Rockies signed veteran pitchers Ivan Nova and Chris Rusin to minor league deals to build out pitching depth in the organization.
