The Colorado Rockies are making some intriguing moves in their front office, particularly with the recent appointment of Charlie Blackmon as Special Assistant to the General Manager. This raises some fascinating questions about the future of the Rockies and the potential for former players to step into managerial roles.

Could Blackmon be laying the groundwork for a future as a manager? His extensive experience and deep understanding of the game could make him a strong candidate down the line. But he’s not the only one in the mix. With Tony Wolters and Jordan Pacheco also making their way back into the organization, we have to wonder: which former Rockies player do you think is most likely to become the next manager?

Let’s not forget about Troy Tulowitzki, who is currently shaping young talent at the University of Texas. If he were to return to the Rockies, would he be the game-changer the franchise needs?

As we speculate about the future, what qualities do you think are essential for a successful manager in today’s game? Is it experience, a strong connection with players, or perhaps a fresh perspective from someone who has recently played?

And here’s a bold prediction: in five years, we could see a Rockies team led by a former player who understands the unique challenges of the franchise. Who do you think it will be, and why?

Let’s dive into this discussion and share our thoughts on the potential managerial candidates and the direction of the Rockies!
