Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Rockies fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
Yesterday, I made the All-Star case for Hunter Goodman. And while it’s unlikely he’ll start the game, he still has another opportunity to show off: He can participate in the Home Run Derby.
The Rockies have had 12 participants in the Home Run Derby in their history: Trevor Story
(2021), Charlie Blackmon (2017), Carlos González (2016, 2012), Troy Tulowitzki (2014), Matt Holliday (2007), Todd Helton (2001), Larry Walker (1999, 1997), Vinny Castilla (1998), Ellis Burks (1996), Dante Bichette (1994). The last Rockie to participate in the Derby was Story in 2021, when he made it to the second round but was edged by Trey Mancini 13-12 (he hit 32 total between the two rounds).
Goodman told the media he’d be interested in participating if asked:
Should he?
Bonus Question: How many home runs do you think he’ll hit by the end of the year?
