Do the last couple of days change the offseason outlook?

Though you probably need no reminding, Dick Monfort, the Rockies owner, famously predicted the 2020 Rockies would win 94 games, a season after winning just 71 and effectively making zero upgrades to the roster. The club didn’t come anywhere near that level of success and it wasn’t because of the shortened season. Their .433 winning percentage over 60 games would have netted them 70 wins over the course of a full 162-game schedule.

This offseason, it appears the team will be relatively quiet once again, as the financial hardships caused by the coronavirus continue to handcuff clubs, especially those with lower financial flexibility.
