Colorado is still without a first baseman for 2026. Despite one on the 40-man roster, another utility player who might fill the void and a top prospect being primed as the heir apparent, there's still a void for Opening Day and a potential disaster if nothing is done about it. Is Luis Arráez the savior in waiting for the Rockies? Do his numbers at Coors Field scare you away?

Paul Goldschmidt, Rhys Hoskins, Nathaniel Lowe and Carlos Santana are the only other proven options at first base in free agency. Could Goldy be the more economical fit? Would he hit any major milestones while in purple?

Plus, Rockies sign a pitcher to a minor league deal, Willi Castro news regarding the 2026 WBC and Austin Gomber finds a home for 2026.
