Cody Bellinger, not Brandon Nimmo, the center field target for Colorado
The journalists were waiting for the elevator to go up to the sixth floor to talk to Colorado Rockies' GM Bill Schmidt. They were 34 floors short of the penthouse. The Harbor Tower is 40 stories high and boasts views of San Diego Bay and the tied island of Coronado. Colorado was linked with Brandon Nimmo from the New York Mets this offseason.
Cody Bellinger is the new target for Colorado. Brandon Nimmo is not. Kevin Kiermaier, Michael Conforto and Bryan Reynolds are also on the market. The market seems too steep at the moment. Colorado has a budget but is willing to take risks. They are not interested in signing long-term contracts. The team is interested only in young players. It is possible that the team will have to accept some concessions. There are less seats available. For example, the club might have had to give up some salary. This is a unique situation. If this happens, it might change the situation for the players involved.
