When the New York Mets visited Denver earlier this month to play the Colorado Rockies, it was a kind of homecoming for relief pitcher Adam Ottavino. He was with the team from 2012-2018 and was part of the last group to make it to the postseason.
Of that time, Ottavino told Denver media, “To me, 2018 is definitely my best year — I pitched a lot and I pitched well.”
He also still feels an affinity for Denver. “It feels like home every time I’m here, and I’ll always be a Rockie in my mind,” Ottavino said.
