They’ve proven that it just doesn’t matter.

Rockies = bad baseball operations and bad baseball execution… but decent hotdogs. Save a couple very good players, they’re a VERY reliable perennial flop.

What solid reasoning or facts induce anyone to believe differently?

So would Bruce Boche I suppose.

Remember, this is the team that thought it was a great idea to use a 4 man rotation in the thin air of Colorado during part of the season. Even though Matt Williams would be a better choice, at least he has coaching experience.

Jason Giambi or a bag of balls….

They will barely choose Giambi because the balls haven’t been in the humidor long enough. I think the management has been in the thin air of the Rockies too long.
