The Colorado Rockies' 1993 season was the first for the Rockies. They played in the National League West. Don Baylor was their manager. Playing their home games in Mile High Stadium, better known as the home of the Denver Broncos, the Rockies sold 4,483,350 tickets to their home games, setting the Major League record for attendance, which still stands as of the 2023 season . Colorado finished 37 games behind the NL West Champion Atlanta Braves with a record of 67–95, sixth in the division, only ahead of the San Diego Padres.

Offseason

Draft picks

Expansion draft

As opposed to previous expansion drafts such as the 1961 draft, players from both leagues were available to the expansion clubs. Each existing club could protect fifteen players on their roster from being drafted and only one player could be drafted from each team in the first round. Then for each additional round National League teams could protect an additional 3 players and American League teams could protect 4 more. All unprotected major and minor League players were eligible except those chosen in the amateur drafts of 1991 or 1992 and players who were 18 or younger when signed in 1990.

1992 MLB June amateur draft and minor league affiliates

The Rockies and Florida Marlins, set to debut in 1993, were allowed to participate in all rounds of the June 1992 MLB first-year player draft. The Rockies selected 27th overall in the first round, with pitcher John Burke their top pick. Of the 50 amateur free agents selected, ten made the major leagues, including Burke and—most prominently—Craig Counsell (11th round) and Quinton McCracken (25th). [8] The Rockies affiliated with two minor league clubs during 1992 to develop drafted players.
