Scaling the Rocks: Let the autopsy of the 2026 Colorado Rockies begin

The Colorado Rockies concluded their 2026 season with a postmortem press conference at Coors Field, where team leadership addressed the franchise’s most pressing challenges. President Walker Monfort and President of Baseball Operations Paul DePodesta emphasized the need to overhaul the starting pitching rotation, a recurring issue that has plagued the team’s competitiveness.

Monfort also clarified that the Rockies have no plans to sell the team, despite speculation about a potential sale to Broncos ownership. He noted that the Penner Sports Group has played a key role in reducing the team’s debt, though their focus remains primarily on the Broncos for now.

Meanwhile, analysts are weighing in on the Rockies’ offseason priorities, with discussions centering on avoiding costly free-agent missteps and identifying core players like Hunter Goodman to build around in 2027.
