Troy Tulowitzki exploded onto the scene securing the starting Shortstop in 2007 finishing second in Rookie of the Year voting and leading the NL with a whopping 3.7 Defensive bWAR.  “Tulo” would be robbed of a Gold Glove that year, but would later win two of these trophies in 2010 and 2011.  While Tulowitzki was dazzling fans defensively, he was not your pre-Ripken Shortstop.  Actually, he was more like Ripken.

Tulowitzki hit over 20 Home Runs for the Rockies six times, with a Batting Average over .300 four times; five if you include what he did with Colorado before he was traded to Toronto.  He would finish in the top ten in OPS four times and five times bWAR for Position Players with Colorado.  Without question, it will be a while before we see a better all-around infielder for the Rockies!
