Remember in 2019, when the Rockies were long out of the playoff picture and some young guys named Ryan McMahon, Raimel Tapia, Garrett Hampson, and Sam Hilliard, among others, made September fun?
This year, even though he’s a little older than that crew in 2019, the creator of fun is 29-year-old Connor Joe. Plenty has been written about Joe from his work ethic, perseverance, toughness, and “growing legend.” The increasing fame, coupled with his magical moments on the field like Wednesday’s grand slam, got me thinking wondering: should Joe take over the leadoff spot permanently?
