Welcome to the 2021 edition of Ranking the Rockies, where we take a look back at every player to log playing time for the Rockies in 2021. The purpose of this list is to provide a snapshot of the player in context. The “Ranking” is an organizing principle that’s drawn from Baseball Reference’s WAR (rWAR). It’s not something the staff debated. We’ll begin with the player with the lowest rWAR and end up with the player with the highest.

No. 44, Chi Chi González: -0.7 rWAR
Chi Chi was essentially the Rockies’ sixth starter — with injuries to other members of the rotation throughout the season, the 29-year-old right-hander would be the first man to step up and eat some innings.
