Colorado’s 2025 arc remains a wild ride: the Rockies are still far from contention but show flashes in the late innings as the season winds down and rosters expand to 28. Look for debuts from Sterlin Thompson, Gabriel Hughes, or Sean Sullivan, or calls for Zac Veen or Drew Romo to contribute before year’s end. Nolan Arenado’s trade legacy and the MLB.TV deal shape the franchise’s short- and long-term plans, while left-handed trends and end-of-season goals set the tone for the final month and potential bobblehead promos.
