The Colorado Rockies are stirring the pot with some bold claims about their defense for the upcoming 2025 season. Dick Monfort has gone as far as to suggest that their infield could be the best defense, maybe in the history of the game. This statement raises eyebrows, especially considering the Rockies' average defensive performance in 2024.
What do you think? Is Monfort's optimism justified, or is it just another case of wishful thinking? With the addition of Thairo Estrada and the return of key players like Ezequiel Tovar and Ryan McMahon, can the Rockies really transform their defense from mediocre to historic?
Let’s dive deeper into the numbers. The Rockies finished 14th in defensive runs saved last season, and while they have some promising individual performances, can they truly elevate their collective game? Is it realistic to expect a monumental shift in their defensive capabilities, or are we setting ourselves up for disappointment?
Moreover, how do you feel about the impact of the Coors Field outfield? Brenton Doyle seems to thrive in the expansive space, but does that advantage translate to a stronger overall defense?
Share your thoughts on the Rockies' defensive prospects for 2025. Do you think they can live up to the hype, or is this just another case of the front office overestimating their talent? What are your predictions for the season ahead? Let’s hear your insights!
