Could the longtime snake be a good fit in the Colorado Rockies outfield? Even if Carlos Gonzalez, Gerardo Parra or Matt Holliday returned to the Rockies, it’s hard to imagine any of them as everyday players. Charlie Blackmon and David Dahl are clear Opening Day starters, but that still leaves a hole in the outfield.
Currently the Rockies have two palatable options: Raimel Tapia, or moving Ian Desmond into a corner outfield position. I said palatable, not necessarily appealing.
If GM Jeff Bridich is going to “be a little more focused on our offense this offseason,” then a right-handed bat in the outfield should be a priority.
