National pundits have stated with frequency over the past several weeks that the relationship is irreconcilable. Either Nolan Arenado has to go or GM Jeff Bridich has to go. And while Bridich’s departure from the organization would likely be a cause of celebration for Colorado Rockies fans, it is unlikely to happen at the moment.
Luckily for Rockies fans, it also looks like Arenado will start the season with the team. So what does the team do about this supposedly irreconcilable rift? The answer is simple, even if unlikely. The truth is, nothing in sports is actually irreconcilable and, as the old adage states, winning fixes everything.
