It appears that Ian Desmond's time with the Colorado Rockies is done. After opting out of the 2020 season due to concerns about COVID-19 and the ongoing protests against racism and police brutality across the country, Desmond has also decided to sit out the 2021 campaign. He announced his decision on his Instagram story Sunday morning. Ryan discusses Desmond's time with the Rockies overall, and why it is important to separate Desmond the baseball player from Desmond the person off the field.

Now that Nolan Arenado is gone, who will take over at third base for the Colorado Rockies? Ryan argues that Ryan McMahon is the most logical choice, and the numbers back that up. Brendan Rodgers, the Rockies former top prospect, also stands to gain from the Arenado trade, as he finally has a spot on the infield to run with. It's time for Rodgers to prove what he has, and we'll see if McMahon can provide above-average defense at third base in the absence of Arenado.
