Well, they’re not all going to be positive. That’s starting out a post on the right foot about as well as Daniel Day-Lewis in My Left Foot. Before Ryan McMahon talk, let’s talk about the Rockies in general. This is a team that screwed me (this time it’s personal!) with Raimel Tapia, David Dahl and Tom Murphy, and that’s only from this past year! In the past, they’ve refused to play Eric Young, Ian Stewart, Charlie Blackmon (for 3 years!) while opting at times for Clint Barmes, Seth Smith, and Ty Wigginton. I know, those first names don’t jump out as amazing, aside from Chazz Noir, but we’ll never know because they just weren’t played. In five years, we may say Raimel Tapia isn’t good either if he gets at-bats like Eric Young, which was rare to never. First base is especially littered with vets who the Rockies chose to go with over rookies: Helton (four to five years too long), Justin Morneau, Giambi and Mark Reynolds. Not saying these were all bad, okay, they were mostly bad, but Mile High makes mountains out of molehills. If the Rockies gave, say, Ben Paulsen a real chance at 1st base, maybe he would’ve done better. Which brings us back to Ryan McMahon, who the Rockies moved to first because The Torenado’s got 3rd on lock, and he’s a star. 3rd lock from the sun? So, what can we expect from Ryan McMahon for 2018 fantasy baseball?
Please, blog, may I have some more?
