Hey, great #Rockies talk. Litigating the past is great but I am interested in the future. But night as well give a closing statement that I gave in a video last week. #Rockies GMs I have covered traded the following All-Stars ...
Bichette, Kile (Kile happened the day before I drove out here to start my new job), Castilla, Cirillo, Hampton, Walker, Chacon, Holliday, Jiménez, Tulowitzki, Arenado. Don't think I left out anyone.
From all those deals they got an All-Star year from Cirollo (for Castilla) ...
From all those deals they got an All-Star year from Cirollo (for Castilla) ...
...three All-Star years from Brian Fuentes, a standout career from Carlos González and some good work from Huston Street for Holliday. That's it. Austin Gomber's work already and Elehuris Montero's promise already make this one of the best such deals ever. And if you say, "Well..
... it's the Rockies," talk to your friends at smaller-market franchises. These deals rarely work, and the ones that do (Holliday) come before the hefty contract is signed, rarely after.
