Overview

  • Colorado closed with a 4-0 loss to the Giants to finish 43-119, the worst record in MLB this season and the worst in club history.
  • The Rockies posted a reported minus-424 run differential, the largest in the modern era and the worst by any team since the 1899 Cleveland Spiders.
  • Colorado endured an MLB-high 18 shutouts, a franchise-worst 25-56 home record, and historically poor opening stretches including 6-33 through 39 games and 8-42 through 50.
  • Manager Bud Black was fired in early May, longtime president and COO Greg Feasel is stepping down, Walker Monfort was elevated to executive vice president, and national reporting points to a broader front-office shakeup.
  • Veterans Jake Bird and Ryan McMahon were traded to the Yankees and Tyler Kinley to the Braves, while bright spots included All-Star catcher Hunter Goodman’s 31 homers and the selection of top prospect Ethan Holliday with the No. 4 pick.
