For the Rockies, wait until next year has been here for quite some time.
To be more precise, the Rockies haven’t sniffed contention since the end of June 2019 when they were four games above .500. Then came their 6-19 July and ultimately a 71-91 record.
Next came the lost 2020 season amid the coronavirus pandemic, followed by the Nolan Arenado soap opera and trade, and finally, this strange season in which the Rockies are stalking the worst road record in franchise history.
That brings us back to the future and a peek ahead to the offseason and Colorado’s financial situation.
