With the season fast approaching and the Rockies one year older the individual players are beginning to reach some "milestones". Most of the players are young and still have plenty of time reach higher numbers and show that they did something for the Rockies and baseball if they ever move on. Here are some of the "milestones" the players are reaching and where they are now:
|
Player |
Milestone |
Current |
|
Huston Street |
100 saves |
94 saves |

Manny Corpas |
50 saves |
23 saves |

52 wins |

Chris Iannetta |

Brad Hawpe |

Todd Helton |

1957 hits |
|
Todd Helton |
500 doubles |
471 doubles |
|
Todd Helton |
1200 RBI |
1116 RBI |
I think all of these can be reached this year but then the question becomes, WHEN? The MLB website has a milestone tracker but the only Rockies player it has listed is Todd Helton, with projected dates of: May 22, for 2000 hits; August 23, for 500 doubles; and he won't get his 1200 RBI this year. When do you think these will occur? Are the projections for Mr. Helton accurate or will he play like he has all spring and beat these projections a lot faster?
