Wednesday is the first day Colorado Rockies pitchers and catchers are officially reporting to the club’s 2016 Spring Training, which takes place in in Scottsdale, Ariz., at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick.
The Rockies first spring training game of 2016 will be against the Arizona Diamondbacks on March 2.
But for the many Rockies fans who won’t be able to make it down to Arizona, Thomas Harding, who covers the Rockies for MLB.com, and many of the players themselves gave us an inside look:

And the fans aren’t the only ones amped for the start of baseball season; the players are, too.
