This past June, the former Rockies closer happened to run into Colorado CEO Dick Monfort during a Roy Halladay Award function.
“If anything opens up with the club,” Veres, the first man to ever record a 30-save season for the Rox, told Monfort. “I’d love to put my name in the hat for a coaching job.”
“I’ll pass it along,” Monfort assured him.
It’s late November, and Veres, who’s been a pitching coach at Cherry Creek High School for the last seven years or so, hasn’t heard anything from the club yet.
