Rockies Trade Now for Future Wins | Colorado Rockies News
Description
The Rockies are in rebuilding mode, trading present bullpen depth for future upside—sending Seth Halvorsen to the Dodgers for pitcher Nick Frasso and prospect Landyn Vidourek. While their 40-62 record and recent skid show they’re not contending, the team’s offense is trending up and the culture is improving. Pitching remains a glaring weakness, with Kyle Freeland acknowledging the team’s struggles to keep pace. President Paul DePodesta insists on smart, long-term moves—even if it means sacrificing short-term wins—highlighting that player development is non-negotiable. The Rockies aren’t chasing 90 wins this year, but they’re laying the groundwork for a brighter future, even if it means trading players like Hunter Goodman for high-upside prospects.
