Arenado and the Rockies reached a record setting deal in arbitration with $26 million, beating out Josh Donaldson’s $23 million at the start of last year. Arenado is relieved the business side is complete, so now he can focus on what he loves: playing baseball. The Rockies are still likely to try for a long-term deal with the third baseman, who will be a free agent at the end of the year. He’ll be able to demand a major contract, likely in the $200 million range, so it’s up to the Rockies to try to strike up a deal.Rodgers set to compete for starting 2B role | Rockies.comBrendan Rodgers

After being selected third overall in the 2015 Draft, Rodgers spent time in the minor leagues, learning everything he could and getting some valuable experience. He also got some mentorship from Matt Holliday who was down in Albuquerque before coming up to the majors. Rodgers is healthy and ready to go, so here’s to a good 2019 at second base. Colorado Rockies: Health main difference in David Dahl’s offseason | Rox PileDavid Dahl’s offseason this year has been different than past ones. The 24-year-old got married, and he’s also been able to work out while he’s healthy. He’s been with the Rockies for five years, but this is the first year he’ll go into spring training fully healthy. This is fantastic news for the Rockies, who have seen phenomenal output from Dahl. He ended last year strong, and he’s been able to prepare for this new season at full capacity. He’s feeling motivated after the powerful hitting he had in September of last year, when he hit .281 with nine home runs. If he can maintain his health and continue to impress us
