It was good Carlos Gonzalez had face time with his fans on Saturday during a toy drive for charity. When the season starts, he'll be a little farther from them, thanks to a position change, from left field to center field. The Rockies traded Dexter Fowler to the Astros earlier this month and needed Gonzalez, a three-time Gold Glove Award winner, to man that important position.

"Some people are disappointed because there are no seats behind center field," Gonzalez said with a laugh. "They say they're going to miss me in left, but I told them I'm going to be right next to them."
