The Colorado Rockies have a serious depth problem
Outside of standings, there’s one tell tale sign of a successful Colorado Rockies season. It’s a factor that’s been a part of the Rockies for over a decade and it starts with roster building and resource allocation and it plays out deep on the bench.
It started with the Tulo-CarGo era when the Colorado Rockies‘ two stars would accumulate nearly all of the Rockies offense. It carried over from Troy Tulowitzki to Carlos Gonzalez and Nolan Arenado and then Arenado and Charlie Blackmon and then Arenado and Trevor Story. Colorado has been and offense carried by two men — of many different names and pairings — for years.
