    Rox Lock Up Tulo!!

    The Denver Post reports that the Rockies and Troy Tulowitzki have agreed to a six-year, $30 million contract with a club option for 2014.
    The option would buy out his second year of free agency. It'd be the largest deal ever for a player with less than two years of service time, eclipsing the one Grady Sizemore signed two years ago.
    Great move by the Rockies to get this done. Holliday has to best on the list though. Tulo and Holliday are the future of this franchise and make for one helluva duo.

    Very good signings for the Rockies this offseason, shoring up two of their cornerstones for the future.
    "They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett

    They are going to be a tough team for the next few years.

    Yeah no doubt about that but this is great for the Rockies. Tulo has proven to be a great player and if he doesn't get hit with the injury bug he is going to be an elite player in this league for years to come.

    Congrats to the Rockies! They're definately going to be one of the teams (if not the team...) to beat this year. Plus the whole "underdog" thing helps...

    Good for them. They finally have a real shortstop.

    And no, Neifi Perez wasn't one.
