The Colorado Rockies have kicked off an extremely interesting offseason with some impressive front office decisions.
First off, they were willing to really turn things over following an extremely difficult 2025 season, and then they were able to bring in executive Paul DePodesta as their president of baseball operations after his time with the Cleveland Browns.
One of the biggest remaining questions for the franchise is how they will handle the remaining openings in the front office, and how those members will build out the roster this winter. General Manager will be the biggest of those remaining positions, as the Rockies will look to build a group that not only works well together, but is able to analyze the analytics needed to truly improve this roster long term.
Finding the right general manager becomes somewhat of a time-sensitive issue, as the winter meetings are only roughly a month away, and moves will begin to be made even before that to some degree. Colorado took their time hiring DePodesta and making that choice over the other options they had available, so now, they have to find the next component to the front office quickly.
