The big news coming out yesterday is that former NLCS MVP, 7-time All-Star, and Game 163 hero Matt Holliday has reportedly agreed to a minor league deal with his former team of five seasons who originally drafted him out of Stillwater High School in 1998—YOUR Colorado Rockies. Troy Renck (Matt’s old buddy, apparently) had the scoop on Holliday’s ETA:
Was texting w/ Matt Holliday earlier. Plan is for him to take physical on Saturday then spend 4-5 days in Grand Junction, possibly play a few games. Then go to AAA to see if can find groove to help #Rockies down stretch as bench player.
