Overview

• Colorado removed external finalists Amiel Sawdaye and Matt Forman from consideration, leaving the search unresolved.
• Reported candidate Adam Ottavino said his talks are “probably not going anywhere,” underscoring ongoing uncertainty.
• With MLB’s GM meetings starting Monday in Las Vegas, reports indicate the club could attend without a top decision maker.
• The Rockies declined options on Kyle Farmer and Thairo Estrada and have only four guaranteed contracts for next season: Kris Bryant, Kyle Freeland, Antonio Senzatela and Ezequiel Tovar.
• Recent moves were mostly procedural, with Orlando Arcia and Germán Márquez electing free agency and several waiver and outright assignments reported.
