Bill Schmidt’s Blake Street Bombers

A common theme for the Rockies heading into the 2022 season was the search for more power. Over the past couple of seasons, we have seen their power numbers decrease, despite the stereotypical conception that the Rockies will always hit home runs and put up big numbers.

In his search for power, Bill Schmidt has added Randal Grichuk and Kris Bryant to his outfield with the hope that both will add some offensive spark lacking for the club and complement his current sluggers C.J Cron, Ryan McMahon, and even Charlie Blackmon. In a way, it looks like Schmidt is trying to harken back to the early days of the Rockies and build his own version of the Blake Street Bombers.
