Will the Rockies go shopping for non-tendered free agents?

Last season, one of the biggest names to drop as a free agent immediately following the non-tender deadline was Kevin Pillar. He was eventually signed by the Boston Red Sox to a one-year deal (and eventually traded to the Rockies). With all clubs across baseball financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the expectation is that more players will be non-tendered this offseason than usual which may produce some upgrade opportunities for the Rockies.

The front office has already been picking away with some minor league deals and a trade last week. Marc Carig and Andy McCullough of The Athletic wrote recently about some candidates they predict may be non-tendered by their respective clubs and become available as free agents for the Rockies to pursue.
