The Rockies have a new head of baseball operations.   Colorado hired longtime sports executive Paul DePodesta for the job as the franchise looks to turn its fortunes around, The Post’s Joel Sherman reported Thursday. DePodesta, who spent nearly two decades in front offices across the big leagues, has worked for the NFL’s Browns as their chief strategy officer since 2016 after making the shocking jump from baseball to football.
