Saunders: Carlos Gonzalez’s fate hangs over Rockies offseason

The Carlos Gonzalez question hangs heavy over the Rockies’ offseason.

Will CarGo stay or will CarGo go? That’s something I’m asked quite frequently from Rockies fans who are genuinely excited about the 2017 season.

The answer, however, is difficult to pin down because there are so many different signals out there.

Tuesday, for example, veteran Venezuelan sportswriter Wilmer Reina reported that Gonzalez and the Rockies are considering a contract extension for the all-star right fielder.

“They want an extension, but there are a lot of things to be negotiated to get that done,” Gonzalez told Reina in a story in the Versión Final newspaper in Gonzalez’ hometown of Maracaibo, Venezuela.
