The Colorado Rockies have announced that Warren Schaeffer will be their full-time manager heading into the 2026 season.
Schaeffer served as the Rockies’ interim manager since May 11, when the organization moved on from former manager Bud Black, who went 7-33 before Schaeffer took over.
While under Schaeffer, the Rockies finished with the worst record in baseball (43-119) and had a 36-86 (.295 winning percentage) while he was at the helm. The Rockies’ best month under Schaeffer came in August, when the team went 11-18 and hit .263 with an OPS of .733 as a team. The Rockies’ new president of baseball operations, Paul DePodesta, said he’s “confident Warren is the right person to lead our club forward.”
