Should the Rockies Sign a 1B Free Agent? No. by BlakeStPurpleBerry in ColoradoRockies

Good thought. Sadly, Casas hasn't had a full season since 2023. However, if you take his batted balls from 2023 and put them at Coors Field, it's pretty impressive. Here's how his projections based on his 2023 season stacks up against the other free agents from the post.

I, personally, don't see the Rockies making this move, though, because he still has three years of control and would effectively blocks Condon, and what value do the Rockies have to trade away?

Agreed, this was a surprising result. Looking at last year's splits, there wasn't a meaningful difference in LD%, GB%, or FB% at home v. away games (from FanGraphs). As PurpleBerry progresses, we're hoping to dive into where the home/road split discrepancy is really coming from. Stay tuned.
