The catcher caught on with the Colorado Rockies for two seasons after a long minor league stint, and had the greatest success of his career in Denver.

Danny Ardoin had the best big league years of his entire career with the Colorado Rockies between 2005 and 2006, and while it may not sound like much (he slashed .216/.300/.326) he was a classic veteran catcher dealing with pitchers first and worried about hitting second.

He had a decent amount of power (he ended up hitting six homers and 10 doubles for the Rockies in 248 irregular at-bats in 2005), and he played 115 of his total 165 big league games in Denver in those two years.
