According to major league sources, the Rockies have attempted to trade both players but did not find a deal worth making.
Brendan Rodgers of the Colorado Rockies prepares to bat against Roddery Muñoz of the Miami Marlins during the first inning at Coors Field in Denver on Tuesday, Aug. 27, 2024. The Rockies shook up their roster and continued their youth movement Friday when they non-tendered Gold Glove second baseman Brendan Rodgers and right-handed starter Cal Quantrill.
The Rockies made two other roster moves Friday, avoiding arbitration by giving one-year deals to left-handed reliever Lucas Gilbreath and outfielder Sam Hilliard. The Rockies’ 40-man roster now stands at 38. Amador, 21, is seen as the long-term heir apparent to Rodgers, but Amador struggled in his short stint in the majors in 2024, and he might not be ready in 2025. He played in 10 games with the Rockies, and it was clear he wasn’t ready for prime time, especially as he struggled to make the transition from shortstop to second base. Amador slashed .171/.194/.200 in 36 plate appearances, going 6 for 35 with a double.
