Todd Helton has put the trade talk behind him and is focused on the upcoming season, when he hopes to help the Rockies end their six-year stretch of losing records. The Rockies broke off talks with Boston this week after the Red Sox balked at including any highly regarded prospects in a potential deal for Helton, whose .333 career batting average is tops among active players. The breakdown in talks was met with relief in Colorado, where Helton is the face of the franchise despite two consecutive seasons marred by injuries and illness. |
