Colorado Rockies: A trade tree that spans the entire franchise history

The Colorado Rockies have not been a franchise that has been known for their trades recently but under general manager “Dealin’ Dan O’Dowd,” the Rockies made their fair share of trades. Some of them worked out and some did not. With the trades, they do not have a ton of trade trees but there is one that spans the entire history of the franchise.

How it all started

In the first amateur draft after starting play, the Rockies had the 28th overall pick in the 1993 Amateur Draft. They drafted pitcher Jamey Wright out of high school with that pick.
