Some great players have worn a Colorado Rockies jersey during its 26 years of existence. But which number has been worn by some of the greats in franchise history? We decided to take a look at some of the best players who have worn the same number in a quest to figure out the most powerful jersey number in Rockies history.
For the sake of argument, we chose not to include the lone number of a player who played for Colorado that has been retired by the Rockies (Todd Helton’s #17).
The debate about which jersey number may be the best (but, again, not yet retired) could conceivably start and end with the number 9, which has been worn by both Vinny Castilla (1993-1999, 2004 and 2006) and DJ LeMahieu (2012-2018).
