Rockies Mailbag: Questions for 2022 on C.J. Cron, Trevor Story and a new closer

Denver Post sports writer Patrick Saunders with the latest installment of his Rockies Mailbag.

Good day, Patrick. The second half of this season has been encouraging due to the development of the starting pitching staff and younger position players. If the Rockies add a reliable closer and add a power bat to the outfield, could they be in contention for a playoff berth? Who will replace C.J. Cron at first base and Trevor Story at shortstop? Thank you.
