gold star for USAHOF

Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024 revision of our top 50 Colorado Rockies.

As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following: 

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the American League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Please note that our algorithm has changed, which yielded minor changes throughout the baseball lists.

Last year, the Rockies had an awful year, winning only 61 Games.  The year did see two new entrants based on last season, and one return based on the new algorithm.

As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes

1. Todd Helton

2. Larry Walker

3. Nolan Arenado

4. Troy Tulowitzki

5. Charlie Blackmon

You can find the entire list here.

Pitcher Kyle Freeland moved up one spot to #13. 

Infielder Ryan McMahon advanced to #17 from #25.

Pitcher Antonio Senzatela, who was inactive most of the year due to injury, held his spot at #42.

Shortstop and last year’s Gold Glove winner, Ezequiel Tovar, debuts at #44.

Second Baseman, and current free agent, Brendan Rodgers enters at #46.

Pitcher Jerry Dipoto makes his return to the list based on the new algorithm.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

Brendan Rodgers has thus far played for the Rockies his entire career, which sees him enter his seventh MLB campaign in 2025, though as of this writing, he is a free agent.

The third overall pick in 2015, Rodgers debuted in 2017 and was Colorado’s starting Second Baseman by 2019.   Rodgers’ best season was in 2022, where he won the Gold Glove (with a 2.9 Defensive bWAR), and led all National League Second Basemen in most defensive categories.  Offensively, it was also his best year, with 140 Hits and 63 RBIs.

Rodgers may not return to Colorado, and if so he provided the club 449 Hits.
