The Colorado Rockies had quite the challenging year to say the least. On the bright side, the ball club avoided the worst record in major league history, but regardless it was a poor outing. Now, the Rockies are looking to build this offseason so they can hopefully not be the laughing stock of baseball.

It is important to set out early what the organization hopes to achieve in 2026, but the ballclub must make their goals attainable. Likely one of the goals won’t be to win the World Series in 2026.

Rather the club should focus on small wins moving forward, especially with their pitching staff. The Rockies defense was the lowlight of the 2025 season by far and they aren’t going to flip the script and be the best in baseball next year, but there are a million steps between an ERA under 3.00 and where they were this year.
