As the season gets underway, RoxPile.com is making some fun (but completely unqualified!) predictions about how members of the Colorado Rockies will fare this summer. In this edition: Christian Friedrich.
Christian Friedrich failed as a starter for the Colorado Rockies after being drafted in the first round in 2008 and holding high expectations throughout his minor league tenure.
However, instead of busting completely, Friedrich took the time to reinvent himself as a solid left-handed relief pitcher, appearing in 13 games in 2014 and continuing his good work with the club this season.
Now, let’s see what we can expect from him this summer as he figures to be a central middle relief piece in the Rockies’ bullpen.
