The Colorado Rockies have been running with a mean and lean bench for the last few seasons. Such is the trend in the National League with specialized relief pitchers and monitored workloads for starting pitchers.
That generally requires teams to seek versatility in their position player reserves. The Rockies have checked that box. Unfortunately that versatility has largely come at the expense of any offensive punch off the bench. The Rockies will hope to get the best of both worlds with at least a couple new faces in 2019.
What it probably will be
Tony Wolters seems like a shoe-in as the backup catcher, although he and Chris Iannetta will share time in a way that both come off the bench often.
