Bud Black Retained as Rockies Manager Despite Poor Season

Colorado Rockies extend Bud Black's contract through 2025, focusing on developing young talent amid ongoing challenges.

Bud Black will continue as the Colorado Rockies manager for a ninth season after signing a one-year extension.
The Rockies finished the 2024 season with a 61-101 record, marking their second consecutive 100-loss season.
Despite the team's struggles, management believes in the potential of its young players like Ezequiel Tovar and Brenton Doyle.
Coaching staff changes include the departure of bullpen coach Reid Cornelius and assistant hitting coach P. J. Pilittere.
