Mickey Moniak Signs Extension with Rockies Following Volatile 2026 Season

Mickey Moniak's 2026 season with the Colorado Rockies featured dramatic high and low points, ending in a two-year, $16.25 million extension through 2028. After a strong April with eight home runs and a hit-heavy July, Moniak landed on the 10-day IL on May 23 due to right ankle tendonitis. He slashed .278 with 15 HRs in the first half but cratered to .195 with eight HRs in the second half, driven by lower BABIP and increased exposure to left-handed pitching.
