Colorado Rockies: Excitement bubbles as Matt Holliday returns with “high celling”

DENVER – Seven-time All-Star Matt Holliday once more plays for the Colorado Rockies. The 1998 draft pick is the most prolific left fielder in franchise history and his 2007 season ranks amongst the best offensive seasons in the history of the baseball.

In this, the Rockies 26th season, they’re celebrating their 25th anniversary and for that, they named their all-time 25 best players to build a team earlier this season. Holliday accumulated the 6th most WAR for a Rockies’ player in his first five-year stint before being traded in 2009 to Oakland and is a prominent person to the club.
