Colorado Rockies news: Brendan Rodgers and the future of the infield

Query: who will be the Rockies everyday second baseman in 2021? Further, who will be the first baseman? Based on playing time in 2020, it looks like the answers to those questions involve some combination of Ryan McMahon, Brendan Rodgers, and Josh Fuentes. As I outlined a few weeks back, there is reason for concern if those are the options. Let’s start with the most experienced of the bunch.

But in case you thought the Royals are done, Dayton Moore’s recent comments to MLB Network radio this week suggest there still could be work for him to do. In the interview, Moore cited the versatility of Hunter Dozier and Whit Merrifield as reasons why the Royals could be flexible with who they continue to pursue. But he adds that if they were to add another position player, it would “ideally” be a left-handed bat that could play at either third base or outfield - or perhaps both.
