The next several questions from me will all be in a “Know your Rockies” category and will be deciding between Larry Walker, Todd Helton, Andres Galarraga, Ellis Burks, Vinny Castilla, Nolan Arenado and Cargo.....

Question #255

Using those 7 players Rank them 1-3 according to most runs scored in any one season as a member of the Rockies.
