Troy Tulowitzki has become a fixture in trade rumors, but he insists that he wants to remain with the Colorado Rockies.

"I didn't sign my contract because I wanted to be somewhere else," Tulowitzki said of the 10-year, $157.75 million deal that includes an option for 2021. "I signed my contract because I want to be with the Rockies."

The Rockies haven't had a competitive season since 2010, which has been difficult for Tulowitzki.

"I've never said one thing about [a trade]," said Tulowitzki. "There's been a lot of speculation and people talking for me. It's just been a lot of rumors."
