Charlie Blackmon Begins post-playing career
The Rockies announced Saturday that Blackmon has been hired as a special assistant to general manager Bill Schmidt, Arnie Melendrez Stapleton of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Blackmon announced his retirement this past September, shortly before he wrapped up his 14-year playing career. The 38-year-old spent the entirety of his career with the Rockies and will now remain in the organization as a member of the front office. Blackmon served primarily as the Rockies' designated hitter against right-handed pitching last season, but his retirement could pave the way for the oft-injured Kris Bryant to see more frequent starts in a non-defensive role in 2025.
Charlie Blackmon Signs one-year extension
The Rockies signed Blackmon to a one-year contract extension Friday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Analysis: Blackmon had been scheduled to become a free agent this winter at age 37, but he'll stay home in Colorado for what will be his 14th major-league season. He was selected by the Rockies in the second round of the 2008 MLB Draft out of Georgia Tech and has tallied 1,688 career big-league hits, all in the purple and black. The new one-year deal carries a $13 million guarantee with another $2 million available in performance-based incentives, per Steve Adams of MLBTradeRumors.com.
