The Colorado Rockies have been around since 1993, and there have been some pretty good teams to grace the city of Denver in that time. The top five teams in franchise history show the various ways Colorado has enjoyed success over the years.

The Colorado Rockies don’t exactly have the longest history in the league, but the franchise has made a lot of history over the years. The 2017 Rockies have been extremely impressive to start the young season, but rest assured they will not appear on the list of top five teams all time … yet. This year’s club has shown promise in many different areas, but it may be best to take a look at what worked before this year to show the Rockies what it takes to be considered an all-time great team.

The list is comprised by taking in to consideration wins, divisional rank, season stats, and overall talent of the roster. Postseason performance was included, but it doesn’t exactly offer a large sample size to say the least.
