The Colorado Rockies season is over, and now we shift our focus the next chapter. Bill Schmidt was relieved of his duties on Wednesday, and the Arizona Fall League starts on Monday. The manager position
still hasn’t been officially filled, and there might be some more shakeups coming. We also don’t know when a new GM/PBO will be announced, so we’ll have that to look forward to. But either way, it’s shaping up to be an interesting off-season.
While we wait for more news, here’s what the Purple Row writers had to say this week:
