Patrick Saunders addresses questions regarding the Colorado Rockies' financial health and performance in his latest mailbag. The Rockies are currently valued at $1.48 billion, with an operating income of minus-$17 million for 2023, reflecting challenges in revenue due to changes in sports television.
Concerns about Kris Bryant's contract are raised, with the Rockies likely stuck with it unless he retires. Despite a poor offensive output, the team’s management believes in their coaching staff, and the future may see Sterling Monfort taking on a more prominent role.
Questions about the Rockies’ commitment to fan experience versus winning games and the potential for players like Nolan Jones to rebound from disappointing seasons are also discussed.
