MLB Rumors: Rockies to Lower Payroll in 2025; Cal Quantrill, More Could Be Traded

The Colorado Rockies could trade veteran players including Cal Quantrill this offseason as part of a plan to spend less on their payroll in 2025, Patrick Saunders reported for The Denver Post.

The Rockies ranked 17th in the MLB with a payroll of just over $147 million in 2024, per Spotrac.

That number is now expected to dip due to falling television revenue tied to the decline of regional sports networks, Saunders reported.

Quantrill, second baseman Brendan Rodgers and starter Austin Gomber are "top candidates" for trades this offseason, per Saunders.
