Welcome to the 2021 edition of Ranking the Rockies, where we take a look back at every player to log playing time for the Rockies in 2021. The purpose of this list is to provide a snapshot of the player in context. The “Ranking” is an organizing principle that’s drawn from Baseball Reference’s WAR (rWAR). It’s not something the staff debated. We’ll begin with the player with the lowest rWAR and end up with the player with the highest.

No. 45, Yency Almonate: -1.1 rWAR
After an outstanding 2020 that saw him ranked ninth in our Ranking the Rockies series, and as the second-best reliever on the roster, Yency Almonte had his worst statistical year in 2021 and it wasn’t even close.
