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.

As of this writing, Charlie Blackmon has been with the Colorado Rockies for thirteen seasons, and in the late 2010s, he was one of the best players in the game..  

Playing in the Outfield, Blackmon would have his first All-Star season in 2014, which was the first year that he was a regular starter.  Blackmon would increase his power numbers, and in 2016, he would belt 29 Home Runs with a  .324 Batting Average and a Silver Slugger Award.  As good as that was, Blackmon built on that to become the Rockies; top star over the last three seasons.  In those years, he went to the All-Star Game, had at least 29 Home Runs and had two .300 years.  His best season to date was in 207, where he finished first in the National League in Runs Scored (137), Hits (213), Triples (14), and won the Batting Title (.331).  Blackmon would also have an even 1.000 OPS, and finished fifth in MVP voting.

Blackmon began to decline in 2020, but he remained with the Rockies until he retired in 2024.  He left behind 1,805 Hits and 227 Home Runs for the cliub.
