"Prior to the lockout the Rockies didn’t do anything of note to make their team better. The focus was on retaining the best players from a 74-87 team: Elias Diaz and C.J. Cron got multi-year extensions, while Jhoulys Chacin and Daniel Bard were also retained. I’m burning the Rockies off today because I don’t expect them to do much more once the lockout ends."
