Denver Sports Omelette: Can someone explain the Rockies to the new guy, please?

I’m new here. Can someone please explain to me just what the Colorado Rockies are doing?

Fresh off back-to-back trips to the postseason and consecutive years with more than 3 million in home attendance, the Rox let their all-star caliber second baseman walk, gave his money to someone on the wrong side of 33, and failed to back up the Brinks’ truck for a guy who’s finished in the top five of NL MVP voting three consecutive seasons.

Oh, and they also let their best middle reliever sign elsewhere because the lights-out trio of Bryan Shaw, Jake McGee and Michael Dunn are about to make $24 million combined in 2019.
