Rockies would like to keep Spilborghs
Ryan Spilborghs - OF - Colorado Rockies
Nov. 30, 2009 - 9:45 AM ET

The Rockies plan to hang on to outfielder Ryan Spilborghs unless they receive a substantial offer, FOXSports.com reports.

Spilborghs is a popular trade target, garnering interest from the Braves and White Sox, among others, however the Rockies don't expect to find an offer to their liking. Spilborghs, 30, is arbitration-eligible for the first time this winter after hitting .241/.310/.395 with eight home runs and 48 RBI in 352 at-bats. Unless Brad Hawpe is traded this winter, Spilborghs is destined to be an extra outfielder yet again, so it makes some sense for the Rockies to at least explore a trade.
