While the free agent market may have moved at an incredibly slow pace, the Colorado Rockies wasted no time in shoring up their biggest need … the bullpen.
They spent record-breaking amounts of money adding veteran closer Wade Davis, established set-up man Bryan Shaw, and retaining hard-throwing lefty Jake McGee.
As the regular season draws nearer, they’re hoping it pays off.
Speaking to reporters at the spring training facility at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale, Ariz., McGee said he thinks the improved bullpen is going to be an important piece of the Rockies’ success in 2018.
