When the clock struck midnight and New Year’s Eve became New Year’s Day, a decade of history closed on the Colorado Rockies and a new decade filled with possibilities opened.

The Colorado Rockies will start the decade looking to rebound from a 71-91 mark in 2019. They will also be striving for their third playoff appearance in the last four years thanks in part to a solid core of position players in Nolan Arenado, Trevor Story and Charlie Blackmon as well as a trio of starters with plenty of potential in Kyle Freeland, Jon Gray and German Marquez.

But that’s in 2020 and what is in front of us right now. What about further down the road in the decade? What things will Rockies fans see impact the team and the franchise? We gazed into our crystal ball to see five storylines that will make a big difference for the team as the decade begins.

Let’s dive in to what we see as some of the biggest questions for the Rockies moving forward.
