Purple Row, a Colorado Rockies community

While the rest of the world is predicated on a culture of performance, the Rockies' organization is founded on value. Good thing then that everyone in the Rockies organization is above average.

One of the excuses we've heard from the front office for Colorado's terrible 2012 season has been injuries. While injuries impacted the Rockies more than almost any MLB team, Colorado would still have been in the cellar of the NL West without them.

The Colorado Rockies are targeting FA catcher Ramon Hernandez. Should they come to terms, this could mark the end of the Chris Iannetta era in Colorado.

The 2012 offseason may be one of the more interesting ones in the past several years, with no REAL marquee players available. Will it make a difference for the Rockies?
