Rockies project as a high-variance team in 2018

Table For Two: Previewing the Colorado Rockies | Baseball Prospectus
Ben Carsley and Jeffrey Paternostro at Baseball Prospectus offer their thoughts regarding the Colorado Rockies’ expected 2018 performance. BPro’s PECOTA projection system projects a 78-84 record for the Rockies, and the consensus among the authors is that the Rox will outperform that- though maybe not by a wide margin. The main concern is one that has been oft-speculated among Rockies’ fandom- the possibility that too much time will be given to underperformers because of their veteran status, while young talents are stashed in the minor leagues- or worse, on the bench in the Majors.
