The Colorado Rockies are enduring a tough season, and even a recent string of victories hasn’t done much to offset their disappointing 18–62 record.
On Thursday, the organization announced a significant change: longtime team president Greg Feasel will be stepping down at the end of the year.
“The Colorado Rockies announced today that President & Chief Operating Officer Greg Feasel, a member of the Rockies front office since 1995, will step down at the end of the 2025 season,” the team said in a statement.
“As part of this transition, former Vice President of Corporate Partnerships Walker Monfort has moved into the role of executive vice president of the Rockies, effective immediately. He will lead the club alongside Feasel through the transition and will officially assume his responsibilities in January 2026.”
Greg Feasel, a former NFL and USFL player, had a professional football career that spanned from 1980 to 1987. He played for several NFL teams, including the Seattle Seahawks, Philadelphia Eagles, Houston Oilers, Green Bay Packers, and San Diego Chargers. In the USFL, he suited up for the Denver Gold from 1983 to 1985.
Feasel joined the Colorado Rockies organization in 1996 and steadily rose through the ranks. He was named chief operating officer in 2012 and later became team president in April 2021.
That same year, he also assumed general manager duties after Jeff Bridich stepped down just 21 games into the season.
The Rockies, who entered Major League Baseball as an expansion team in 1993, had already been established for three years by the time Feasel joined. Since then, the team has made five playoff appearances — all as Wild Card entries.
Their first came in 1995, when they were eliminated by the eventual World Series champions, the Atlanta Braves, in the Division Series.
The franchise’s most memorable postseason run came in 2007, when the Rockies won their first National League pennant and advanced to the World Series, where they fell to the Boston Red Sox. Additional playoff appearances followed in 2009, 2017, and 2018.
Over the years, the Rockies have also been home to two Hall of Famers — Todd Helton and Larry Walker — both of whom left lasting legacies in Denver.
