The Colorado Rockies outfield will have a new look in 2019

The Colorado Rockies have depth in the outfield for the 2019 season. We know that at first glance because we are familiar with the names of those outfielders, from the veterans to the prospects. We also see that depth in some of the projections for the upcoming season.

In practice, that depth means that they can afford to move Charlie Blackmon to right field to save his legs and hopefully prop up his offense. In practice, that means shifting Ian Desmond to center field in the hopes of getting more out of his athleticism and having multiple young players who can play the other corner.
