📬 New Rockies Mailbag • How Monfort defines franchise success • Colorado's logjam in the outfield • Pujols' fountain of youth • And more... via psaundersdp

“Third, he’s just having a blast being back with his close friend Yadier Molina, being back where he’s adored in St. Louis, and back in a clubhouse with players like Nolan Arenado, a baseball fanatic who has not hidden how fond he is of Pujols, his favorite player.”

But, in my opinion, he cares more about the bottom line of his business than he cares about the Rockies’ record. He’s not that different from a lot of mid- and small-market owners. Hi Patrick, have a couple of questions about the ballpark. I wanted to ask when they started with all the techno/flashing light shows to pump the crowd up. And have you noticed the tree at the front of the batter’s eye, that thing has gotten big over the years. It blocks a good portion of the fountains when they hit homers from behind the plate. I think it’s a blue spruce.Jeff, thanks for the compliment.

I once told a visiting beat writer that there are a couple of deer that live back there, and said that a couple of coyotes have been spotted. I think he believed me! Hi Patrick, any idea what moves the team will make in the offseason to clear the logjam in the outfield? It seems like there is a lot of “4-A” level of production at the moment.

The issue seems to be with Monfort and the decision-makers. They were too worried about hurting someone’s feelings. They should have fired Jeff Bridich and told Arenado that they wouldn’t trade him, that he was under contract. It would have forced Arenado to opt out of his deal to leave, making him the bad guy to fans — and at the same time could have saved the Rockies around $70 million. Folks are forgetting Monfort is paying $21 million of Arenado’s salary in 2023.
