Briefly

Rockies Unlikely To Trade Brenton Doyle
"Doyle, a premium defender in center field, is eligible for arbitration for the first time as a Super Two player this winter and is projected by MLBTR contributor Matt Swartz to earn $3.2MM next season. The 27-year-old connected on 23 homers and swiped 30 bags in 2024 while slashing .260/.317/.446, but those rate stats dipped to .233/.274/.376 in 2025. It bears mentioning that Doyle's production at the plate improved considerably in the final few months of the season"
"His defensive grades in 2025 weren't quite as strong as in the two preceding seasons, but Doyle has nonetheless tallied 3357 big league innings in center field and been credited with 29 Defensive Runs Saved and 34 Outs Above Average. He's never posted a negative grade in either statistic. Statcast credits him with 91st percentile range, 97th percentile arm strength in the outfield and 99th percentile overall arm value."
Brenton Doyle drew trade interest from multiple teams despite a down offensive season. The Rockies' remade front office led by Paul DePodesta and Josh Byrnes is likely to keep Doyle rather than sell low. Doyle is a 27-year-old Super Two arbitration-eligible center fielder projected to earn about $3.2MM next season. His 2024 output included 23 homers and 30 steals, but his 2025 slash line fell to .233/.274/.376 with improvement after July. Doyle remains an elite defender with strong Defensive Runs Saved and Outs Above Average totals plus top-percentile Statcast range and arm metrics.
