As the Rockies have focused on their bullpen this season, many of us have wondered what first base will look like in 2018. It seems now that 23-year-old Ryan McMahon will be on first on Opening Day, with Ian Desmond in the outfield with Charlie Blackmon and Gerardo Parra. Kevin Henry argues that this makes a certain kind of sense. First base has been a bit of a tricky spot in the past few years, ever since Todd Helton retired. Last year did not go according to plan, with injuries getting in the way.
