DUNEDIN, Fla. – Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Troy Tulowitzki still seethes recounting how it went down, and there are Colorado Rockies’ executives he’d rather not speak with again.

“I’ll never talk to him, never talk to those people,’’ Tulowitzki told USA TODAY Sports. “You get lied to, straight to your face, you get upset. I believe in forgiveness, but at the same time, I don’t plan on being friendly with them, or anything like that.’’The last time he talked to Rockies GM Jeff Bridich was the evening of July 27. Tulowitzki was sitting with Walt Weiss in the visiting manager’s office at Wrigley Field, and he was screaming at him, after being notified he had just been traded to Toronto.

They likely will never become friends, but if they do talk again one day – and the Blue Jays visit Denver in June – it may be Tulowitzki thanking Bridich and the Rockies’ front office.

Meanwhile, Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado isn’t too pleased with Tulowitzki’s comments – especially comments regarding a ‘country club’ culture. Read more at denverpost.com.

Tulowitzki and the Blue Jays visit Coors Field and the Rockies for a three-game series June 27-29.
