The Colorado Rockies are expected to be sellers as the trade deadline approaches. Outfielder Mickey Moniak, described as a "breakout star," has shown impressive stats at Coors Field with 24 home runs and a.980 OPS over the past 1.5 seasons. However, his performance on the road raises concerns, with just 12 home runs and a.703 OPS in 83 away games. Teams like the Philadelphia Phillies may express interest, especially after losing right fielder Adolis Garcia to injury. Moniak, a former first overall pick by the Phillies, has renewed trade appeal after hitting 24 home runs last season. Discussions around Moniak's potential trade are likely to unfold in the coming weeks as the deadline nears.
