Colorado Rockies trade tree: How a career minor leaguer got the Rockies Trevor Story

Trevor Story is obviously one of the biggest guys that the Colorado Rockies will be relying on in 2020 and for good reason: he is one of, if not, the best shortstops in the game of baseball. This offseason, in fact, Story was named the best shortstop in baseball by “The Shredder” on MLB Network.

However, he might not even be a Colorado Rockie if not for a career minor league player named Anthony Jackson.

Jackson was drafted at the age of 22 in the 16th round of the 2006 Amateur Draft out of the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California.
