I’m just going to be completely honest, if I were general manager for a day, changes would be rapid — the most movement involving a team in the history of the Major Leagues. For the rest of this column, I will decide which players I want to keep for the upcoming 2016 season — let’s get started!
The Rockies recently designated catcher Michael McKenry for assignment, opening the door for youngsters such as Dustin Garneau and Tom Murphy to fight for a spot in Spring Training. We all know Nick Hundley will start the season with the big club, hence the two-year deal he signed with the team prior to this past season, but I’d prefer Dustin Garneau to be the backup, letting Tom Murphy get regular at-bats in Triple-A — eventually taking over as Colorado’s everyday catcher.
