There are so many reasons to be excited about the start of the 2019 season. One of them is the way Freeland is firmly positioned as the top starter and face of the rotation. It’s fun to see and listen to this interview with CPR in which he discusses the pressure on him and the lofty expectations for the Rockies this season.
I’ll say this: Freeland answers a question from Vic Vela about reaching the playoffs by saying it should be realistic with the talent this team has.
