Im in the keep Walker and let him play camp. Seems to be getting some confidence. So of course the idiot Marmol rewards him with a day on the bench. Good ol' momentum killing oli. What a stupid jackass.

Lots of folks don't have good peripheral vision.

Good one.
Funny.

Both Dollander and Walker need a change in venue and I think both have value despite their terrible starts to their careers. Is that stupid? I remember getting Kile after an awful time in Denver and it was great.

Holy COW!!! Dollander has a total of 15 starts in the MLB and you think he already needs a change of venue??? Someone needs to tell Kershaw he's about 17 years past due for a change of venue.

Well to be fair every pitcher that puts on a Rockies uniform needs a change of venue.

True

IF MO could get Pages or Kwan for Pallante…. Then he should keep his job!!!

You will get absolutely nothing in return for Pallante at his current state.

I’m hoping Noot is hurt(although not seriously), so we can get a look at Nathan Church. I really like this kid’s potential

First it takes guts to throw out a trade proposal so no, you're not "stupid"

But

I wouldn't make that deal given we're seeing signs of life from Walker.

You can have guts and still be stupid.
I'm not saying the OP is.
But, his trade proposal, imo, was stupid.

Well, didn't the Rockies trade for Dakota Hudson?

If I'm the Rockies, I'm not trading Dollander

Some good ones in this thread.

The Rockies view Dollander as a No. 1 starter in their future. Given how hard it is to find an ace for that team, I doubt they would seriously entertain that.

No.

Cardinals non-tendered him. Rockies gave him a 1 year contract for $1.5MM
