The Rockies are recovering from a disastrous 119-loss season, with their starting pitching being a major concern, evidenced by a league-worst 6.65 ERA in 2025. President Paul DePodesta aims to stabilize the rotation, considering trades involving bullpen and outfield depth while hoping for improvement from current pitchers. The team has struggled to attract free-agent starters due to Coors Field’s impact on performance, relying heavily on internal options and low-profile trades. With limited high-profile prospects and trade assets, significant upgrades to the rotation appear challenging.
