Rockies front office needs more change and less predictions
On Feb. 1, back in the before COVID times, if you can remember those days, Dick Monfort made a bold prediction: The Rockies were going to win 94 games in 2020. He backed the prognostication with less-than explained “interpolated numbers” of the 2007, ’08, and ’09 data.
This was after a 2019 season when the Rockies lost 91 games, made no major offseason trades or acquisitions (the only team to take this laissez-faire approach), and just expected the players to play better.
