The Rockies are heading back to the future.
Bullpen coach Darren Holmes knows the script. He has been there, did well and is eager to take a page out of Rockies pitching history and revise it this season.
Colorado is putting together a bullpen in which roles will be forgotten and where getting outs at critical times will be the focus.
While that has become a recent fad amid the evolution of analytics, it is an old approach at Coors Field, one that Holmes was a part of during his playing stint with the organization from 1993-97.
