As a fun exercise, I have taken it upon myself to help out and play the role of press secretary by drafting a press release that might erase some of fears Colorado Rockies fans may be feeling. It goes something like this:
Dear Rockies Nation,
As you are all aware by now, there has been wide speculation that we have been in trade talks that involve the seven-time Gold Glove winner, five-time All-Star, and four-time Silver Slugger, Nolan Arenado.
Let it be known that the Rockies organization is completely committed to holding up its end of the eight-year/$260 million deal that Nolan signed during Spring Training last season.
