As Spring Training nears, and the regular season grows ever closer, we’re in prime baseball lists season. This time, Mike Petriello brings us his eleven players poised to have breakout seasons in 2019—the Max Muncys and Chris Taylors, if you will. I wouldn’t be bringing this up if there wasn’t a player from the Rockies involved, and Scott Oberg falls in at #7 for Mike.
It’s nice to see Oberg get his due after a tremendous season last year. As Mike mentions, Scott might not be the biggest name out of the Rockies bullpen, but he is arguably the best arm.
