On December 2, 2021, Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred announced a lockout of players, following expiration of the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the league and the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA). On March 10, 2022, the MLB and MLBPA agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement, thus ending the lockout. Opening Day is scheduled for April 7.[1] Although MLB previously announced that several series would be cancelled due to the lockout, the agreement provides for a 162-game season, with originally canceled games to be made up via doubleheaders.[2]

Offseason

Lockout
Main article: 2021–22 Major League Baseball lockout

The expiration of the league's collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with the Major League Baseball Players Association occurred on December 1, 2021 with no new agreement in place.[3] As a result, the team owners voted unanimously to lockout the players stopping all free agency and trades.[4][5]

The parties came to an agreement on a new CBA on March 10, 2022.[6]

Rule changes

Pursuant to the new CBA, several new rules were instituted for the 2022 season. The National League will adopt the designated hitter full-time, a draft lottery will be implemented, the postseason will expand from ten teams to twelve, and advertising patches will appear on player uniforms and helmets for the first time.[7][8]

Front office changes

On October 2, 2021, the Rockies named Bill Schmidt general manager, removing the interim from his job title.[9]

Roster departures

On October 21, 2021, the Rockies designated for assignment Chi Chi Gonzalez,[10] Yency Almonte,[11] Tommy Doyle,[12] Joshua Fuentes,[12] and Rio Ruiz.[12] Gonzalez, Almonte, Fuentes, and Ruiz elected free agency, while Doyle was outrighted to the Albuquerque Isotopes. On November 3, 2021, Trevor Story, Jon Gray, Jhoulys Chacín, and Chris Owings elected free agency.[13] On November 13, 2021, Chacín signed with the Rockies on a one-year contract.[14] On November 17, 2021, Story rejected a $18.4 million qualifying offer from the Rockies.[15]

Free agent signings

On December 15, 2022, the Rockies signed infielders Kyle Holder[16] and Tim Lopes[17] to minor league contracts. On February 1, 2022, the Rockies signed catcher Carlos Pérez[18] to a minor league contract. The Rockies signed pitcher Zach Lee[19] to a minor league contract on February 9, 2022. The club signed pitchers Ty Blach[20] and J. D. Hammer[21] to minor league contracts on March 13, 2022, along with outfielder Scott Schebler.[22] These players were invited to the major league camp in spring training as non-roster invitees.[23] On March 16, 2022, the Rockies announced the signing of infielder José Iglesias and pitcher Chad Kuhl to 1-year major league contracts.[24] One day later, the signing of pitcher Álex Colomé to a 1-year major league contract was announced.[25] On March 18, 2022, the Rockies announced the signing of Kris Bryant to a 7-year, $182 million deal.[26]

Trades

On March 24, the Rockies traded outfielder Raimel Tapia and minor league infielder Adrian Pinto to the Toronto Blue Jays for outfielder Randal Grichuk.[27]
