Remember that game I told you about in the Pirates “Know your enemy” article called “Name 3 Pirates”?
You could probably do that for the Rockies, too. Oh, sure, you know Trevor Story, but he seems likely to be traded by the deadline.
The trade of Nolan Arenado is the big story here. Probably, it’s the only story here, why this team felt it not only had to trade the face of the franchise but kick in $50 million to the Cardinals to do it.
