Things didn't go so well for him after, though, as injuries began piling up and after being converted to a full time reliever in 2022, he completely lost his command. He spent 2024 in indie ball, and impressed the Rockies with a solid performance in the Mexican Winter League.

Looks like there is also a mutual option for Estrada in '26, meaning the Rockies and Estrada will both have a say in whether or not he will go to arbitration or not. Either way, he is under team control for two seasons.
December 10, 2024 at 9:28 PM
