Over the past four months, MLB.com followed top high school prospect Brendan Rodgers through the process of being a top-of-the-Draft candidate. Rodgers was selected No. 3 overall by the Colorado Rockies and officially signed his contract on Wednesday afternoon. Before setting out for the start of his professional career, he took time to pen this letter to Rockies fans.
