We made it again! Tomorrow is Super Bowl Sunday, and this marks the final week of 2025 without baseball until November. Colorado Rockies’ pitchers and catchers report on Thursday, and the rest of the squad will join them next Tuesday. There will be some exciting storylines to watch, as well as some misery to be had as we embark on the 2025 season.
That said, our staff has been hard at work as we look ahead to the rebirth of baseball:
