Episode 213 | November 11, 2021: So Bill Schmidt, Huh?

In the least surprising development in franchise history, the Rockies just handed the general manager job to the next office down the line by tapping longtime scouting vice president Bill Schmidt to construct and operate a major league roster, something he's never done before. We don't know, man! Maybe it'll work! Probably not! But we discuss that news anyway.
At the honoring of Larry Walker and his Hall of Fame induction at Coors Field, Rockies owner Dick Monfort wasn't introduced to the crowd, seemingly deliberately. We discuss what that move says about him and the franchise.
Plus, the Rockies didn't put out a qualifying offer to Jon Gray which means they now risk losing one of the most successful pitchers in franchise history for zero return. Seems bad! We dive in.
And we're taking your #AskPDP queries on everything from the Jokić brothers to terrible holiday commercials to which historical figure we'd hire to run the Rockies. All that and more is on this week's episode of the PDP! Get into it!
