For the first time since talks began with LaTroy Hawkins, the Rockies offered a one-year deal with a slight raise. There are indications that the Rockies want an answer soon.

Hawkins has said that he would not come back with a pay-cut after helping anchor the bullpen last season. However, he has made it clear that he wants to be a Rockie. The resolution could come quickly, one way or the other.
