Colorado Rockies: How Jonathan Lucroy impacted Ryan McMahon

After getting just 19 at-bats last season in his first taste of the big leagues, McMahon enters this season with the potential of not only making his first Opening Day roster but also holding down at least some of the duties at first base for the Rockies. He has been rumored to be “penciled in” at the position. If that’s the case, he will take some of the lessons he learned from former Rockies catcher Jonathan Lucroy with him onto the diamond.

Lucroy, acquired by the Rockies at last season’s trade deadline, had not been with the team long when McMahon got his first big league call-up on August 11.
