Why are Colorado Rockies fans (and it seems perhaps the front office) so quick to dismiss a roster that months earlier the baseball world thought could bring Colorado its first World Series Championship? Yes, 2019 was an abysmal season, but it was also a season in which everything went wrong.
How many teams would survive losing their entire starting rotation? None. That doesn’t mean other teams would have plummeted as spectacularly as the Rockies did, but you can’t expect the team to lose all five starters for a significant portion of time again in 2020.
