Colorado Rockies: Jeff Bridich touts Chris Iannetta’s power potential

Among the players discussed during Bridich during his time on MLB Network was the first player the Rockies signed this offseason (and the only position player inked thus far), catcher Chris Iannetta.

In somewhat of a shocking move in early December, Iannetta and the Rockies reunited with a two-year deal worth $8.5 million. It was thought that the Rockies would bring back Jonathan Lucroy after acquiring the former All-Star catcher at the trade deadline. However, Iannetta brought value to the position at what will likely be a lower rate than whatever contract Lucroy signs.
