Sound the Foghorn is FanSided’s flagship SF Giants podcast hosted by Around the Foghorn co-site expert Marc Delucchi. A new episode comes every week (typically every Sunday) with a different guest to offer their own perspective and analysis of the Giants, other happenings around professional baseball, and beyond.

In this week’s episode, Marc is joined by MLB.com Colorado Rockies beat reporter Thomas Harding. Harding has covered the Rockies for more than two decades. He recently reviewed Colorado’s offseason and looked at how they did (and did not) address their most significant roster holes this winter and wrote about Ryan McMahon’s work to breakout in 2021. To stay up to date with his work, you can follow him on Twitter @Harding_at_MLB.

They have a wide-ranging conversation about the Rockies organization, why they made the Nolan Arenado trade, and where the front-office plans to go from here. Harding also offers his thoughts on the state of the National League West outside of Southern California. While plenty of attention has (rightfully) gone to the Dodgers and Padres this winter, he offers some intriguing insights on the trio of other teams in the division.

Make sure to subscribe to Sound the Foghorn to stay updated on interesting SF Giants and MLB conversations, like this week’s episode with Thomas Harding.
