At times over the past several years, it's seemed that Brendan Rodgers's name has come up as a potential trade chip for the Colorado Rockies. After the 2018 season, it was rumored that the Rockies could have obtained J.T. Realmuto from the Miami Marlins if they included Rodgers in the trade. Before the 2023 season, it was rumored that the Rockies had discussions with the Marlins again about Rodgers which could have sent Edward Cabrera to Colorado. In both instances, it seems the Rockies balked at the prospect of trading Rodgers.
When it comes to Rodgers, the Rockies have been loyal and tight-fisted to a fault.
