    Carlos Gonzalez has become a favorite among fans, not just in Colorado but in the world. He has proven to be one of the most talented players in the game, and a reason alone to go buy a ticket to see him play.

    On Sept 14, 2012 he stole his 19th and 20th base to become the first Rockie in franchise history to be in the 20/20 club in three consecutive seasons (and I think he will be doing it for more seasons to come). The greatest thing about watching him achieve this milestone or any milestone in his career is that he doesn't do it for himself and his numbers, but for the team. If you go back and wonder what were some good trades in the franchise, hands down Matt Holliday for Carlos Gonzalez and several other players was the biggest win for the Rockies. Carlos has given more than anybody could ask for.

    A humble player that plays with all his heart for his team and the fans, makes any fan want him for life on their team. He is part of the face of this team, and could be said to be the franchise.

    Can't wait to see him next season, and see this team start winning with a player like him...he deserves a ring.
