When all was said and done, I needed the money.
Two ex-wives will do that to you.
I flew into Colorado and met with the Rockies GM Jeff Bridlich. A 40 year old native of Wisconsin, Bridlich had been in baseball for a dozen years. My boss would be eleven years younger than me.
We agreed to a one year contract for $130,000. We both agreed that, under the circumstances, a year was enough for now.
Just to see how things would go.
I attended Spring Training with the Rockies as we all began to put together our rosters.
During this time, the following moves took place:
