The Colorado Rockies have decided to retain Bud Black as their manager for another season, extending his contract through 2025 despite a disappointing 61-101 record in 2023. This marks the team's sixth consecutive losing season, prompting changes in the coaching staff, including the departure of bullpen coach Reid Cornelius and assistant hitting coach P.J. Pilittere.
General manager Bill Schmidt expressed confidence in the team's direction, highlighting the potential of young players and the importance of Black's experience. The Rockies aim to build a competitive roster and return to postseason play, a goal that has eluded them since 2018.
