What happened: The Colorado Rockies are exploring moves ahead of the August 3 trade deadline. The club recently traded right-hander Seth Halvorsen to the Los Angeles Dodgers, and MLB.com's Thomas Harding reported Colorado is seeking a large return for Hunter Goodman.
Why it matters: The Colorado front office indicated the club must do business with the rest of the league. The early move of Halvorsen underscores a willingness to negotiate as the franchise works to acquire future assets.
By the numbers: Colorado holds a 38-58 record this season and averages 4.8 runs scored per game.
