Spring training is all about potential. That’s especially true for the 2023 Rockies. And if there is a poster boy for possibility, it’s Michael Toglia.
There is so much to like: his glovework and instincts at first base, the power, and the fact that he’s a switch-hitter. Plus, the 6-foot-5, 230-pound Toglia has the athleticism to play right field. But Toglia still has a lot to prove if he wants to break camp as a member of the Rockies. And right now, there is no chance he supplants C.J. Cron as Colorado’s starting first baseman. With three weeks remaining in spring training, Toglia is riding the roster bubble.
But the majors, as Black continually preaches, is a different animal and tougher to tame. Big-league pitchers adjust quickly to inexperienced hitters, finding ways to exploit flaws in their approaches. It’s a small sample size, to be sure, but the Rockies want to make sure Toglia’s strikeouts don’t reach the level that plagued outfielder“I dove into that this offseason with some guys,” Toglia said. “We figured that most of those strikeouts came from me being late and missing a pitch early in the count, so my two-strike percentage was through the roof.
