To be fair, she isn’t wrong. Dom Nunez was far better /s
I guess Iannetta’s the move, but Yorvit def ain’t
I loved Torrealba back in the day 🤷♂️
How dare they leave off Willin “Baby Bull” Rosario!!!
/s
Got to see him go 0-3, 3K batting cleanup for Hanshin in 2018.
For those unaware (as I somehow was until a few weeks ago), Rizzo is married to Iannetta.
Well, she is his wife, after all.
(I called that back in 2009 or 2010 during a post game interview. Chris was clearly looking her over, and she didn’t seem bothered at all by it.)
The Rockies have never really had a great catcher. Iannetta had one year where he hit 3rd for quite a while so he can be in the conversation.
But Yorvit helped them get into a World Series with Iannetta as his backup. Alanna is pumping up her husband, so good on her, but they picked the right guy.
No love for Joe Gerardi?
I met Chris Ianetta once. He was a real asshole. Just for that reason, I’d vote for anyone but him.

Maybe we are seeing an all time great with Hunter Greatman. Obviously wayyyy to soon for that but maybe🤞
No Big Cat?
Would this team win a world series 🤔
Statically no but speaking for the Venezuelan contingent. But yeah Todd Helton.
Man, if only some of these guys got to play together for the Rox, they surely would have been a serious contender for the NL West, and maybe even the NL pennant!
>!/s!<
Ubaldo had one good season for the Rockies
If Alana DIDN’T stick up for her husband, I would have been shocked. Alanna rocks.
To be fair, the Rockies have had a bunch of really good outfielders.
What about the gem of a signing, Mike Hampton? 😂.

Agreed, Ianeetta has the highest bwar for any Rockies catcher in a season at 3.2. Could be broken this year by Hunter Goodman.
