John Arguello of 2080 Baseball takes a look at one of my personal favorites, Carlos Estevez. Arguello breaks down Estevez's somewhat unusual path to professional baseball, why he is regarded as the closer of the future for the Rockies, and where he will begin the 2016 season.

Finally, from our Purple Row family to yours, we wish you a very happy New Year and can't wait to see the wonderful things 2016 brings our way!
