In this episode of Every Rockie Ever, Skyler and Dustin reunite to talk about two notable veteran catchers for the Rockies. Yorvit Torrealba etched his name into Rockies lore as the primary catcher in 2007 while carving out a solid career in purple. Despite being a platoon catcher behind Chris Ianneta, Torrealba always made the most of his playing time.
Jonathan Lucroy was a great trade acquisition at the deadline in 2017, immediately impacting a young pitching staff and navigating them to the playoffs. What made him better was that he found some offensive resurgence after the trade, even though the power wasn't there, and made us wish we could have re-signed him.

This week, Skyler and Evan discuss the position battles for 2025 that seem to have already started. Top catching prospect Drew Romo hasn't seen the field in 11 days and appears to have been supplanted by Hunter Goodman. What's the reasoning, and can we expect Goodman to start at catcher next year? Meanwhile, when it comes to fourth outfielder, the Rockies need to make a decision between Sam Hilliard and Jake Cave because you can't keep both. Finally, this might be Charlie Blackmon's last week as a Colorado Rockie and maybe as a big league ball player.

This week, Evan and Skyler are joined by Dustin "Mr. T-Spanish" Timmins to discuss the Rockies' problem with strikeouts. The Colorado Rockies are a league leader in strikeouts, and not in a good way as they are on pace to set a franchise high.
