July 27, 2015 – Rockies trade Troy Tulowitzki to Toronto
Rumors of a potential trade had been circling Troy Tulowitzki for years. Those rumors had been mostly squashed by the team and Tulowitzki himself in the months leading up the the July 31, 2015 trade deadline. But on July 27, the Rockies unexpectedly sent their longtime shortstop to the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for Jose Reyes and three pitching prospects. The shortstop told the Denver Post he was “shocked” to hear the news. Two days later Tulowitzki put on a show for his new team, going 3-for-5 with two doubles, a home run and three RBI in his debut (above).
