In a sport where—until recently—there are forty rounds in a draft, Major League Baseball teams sign a lot of young men with the hopes that a handful of them will develop into their next superstar player. It’s far from sure, but occasionally teams will land a player that you are just convinced will be the next big thing for your team. The Colorado Rockies are no exception. Pretty much every sports fan has their one guy they were absolutely sure was set to be a star, and it’s a fascinating topic. Leave your choice for a Rockies player that could have been a contender in the comments and he might be the feature of a future Rockpile!
