The Chairman (Evan Nolan) and Evan Nolan look at franchise Halls of Fame and the antics of Jeremy Roenick.

26. Jon Gray

Drafted 3rd overall in 2013, Jon Gray made his Major League debut for the Colorado Rockies in 2015.  The following season, he was a fixture in the Rockies’ starting rotation.

The 8th Overall Pick of the 2016 Amateur Draft made the Colorado Rockies in 2017, where as a rookie he went 11-11 and was seventh in Rookie of the Year voting.  That wasn’t bad, but it was his 2018 year that turned heads around the baseball world.

Before he could play with Tampa, German Marquez was traded to Colorado in January of 2016.  He would pitch for the Rockies in six games that year, and he would make the starting rotation the following season where he went 11-7 and was fifth in Rookie of the Year voting.
