A lot is being expected of Brendan Rodgers this season as he prepares to see action in his third season at the MLB level with the Colorado Rockies. On Thursday, Rodgers gave a glimpse into why those expectations are so high … and then even added some more weight onto them.

Starting at third base for the first time this spring, Rodgers went 2-for-3 with a pair of RBI as the Colorado Rockies fell to the Seattle Mariners 9-7 on Thursday afternoon at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick.
