Cargo

Congratulations to Carlos Gonzalez and the Colorado Rockies for agreeing to a 7- year $80 million contract extension! This off season the Monforts have proven they are now about winning more than making money, which is refreshing! We need the Rockies because the Broncos are in re-building mode with a new regime, the Nuggets are on the verge also being in rebuilding mode with the pending Melo trade, and the Avalanche have shown to be young and inexperienced (although they show flashes of brilliance!).
Cargo had a 2010 for the ages! He was the National League batting Champion, he was a National League Gold Glove Winner, National League Silver Slugger Award winner, he was a Two-time National League Player of the Week, and he managed to hit for the cycle vs the Cubs (who else would it be against?!) back on July 31st! Now that the Rockies have Cargo and Tulo for the next several years we should continue to be contenders in the National League. Hopefully the Monforts will continue to be generous with their money and sign Ubaldo Jimenez to an extension before his contract ends in 2014. Sorry Yankees and Red Sox. You weren’t able to steal Tulo and Cargo from the Rockies. Looking forward to seeing both teams in the World Series in the next 7 years.
