## Resource

T.J. Rumfield’s breakout month has earned him National League Rookie of the Month honors for May, turning a mid-winter trade from the Yankees into a Rockies win. After being blocked in New York’s crowded outfield, the young first baseman exploded with a .310 average, four homers, 12 RBIs, and a stellar .883 OPS. His performance marks the first Rockies rookie ROY since Nolan Jones in 2023, and he’s already slashing .286/.361/.456 with eight homers and 30 RBIs. Rumfield’s power, patience, and all-field hitting suggest he’s poised to anchor Colorado’s future — and he even delivered a clutch solo shot against the Angels.
