A few weeks ago I wrote the argument that Cal Quantrill is a great trade chip if the Colorado Rockies allow him to be one. My purpose was to highlight the two sides of the argument for the Rockies as to why they would trade him and why they wouldn’t trade him. There has been promising news on that front as the Rockies are reportedly willing to listen to offers for Quantrill, but with a year of team control the ball is still in their court.
Today, we’ll expand on the latter part of that argument and entertain this idea of a potential extension to ask the same question I’ve written about many times before; is an extension worth it?
