The Colorado Rockies are back at Salt River Fields at Talking stick this afternoon to take on the Kansas City Royals as the final full week of spring training begins. The veterans, big leaguers, and other camp bodies will make up the roster for the Rockies as the prospects head to Glendale for the Spring Breakout prospect showcase later today.
Veteran lefty Kyle Freeland will make his fourth start of the spring for the Rockies. Freeland pitched 4 2⁄3 innings his last time out against the Cincinnati Reds, striking out a whopping eight batters while giving up three runs (two earned) on five hits.
