Kyle Freeland did not envision this kind of start to his season: 0-2 record, 10.00 ERA, 2.00 WHIP, and a .350 batting average against.
But the Rockies’ left-hander, who turns 29 on May 14, has navigated this road before and said he’s more capable of handling the twists and turns than he’s ever been before.
“I’ve been in these situations countless times now and I know what I need to do and how to go out and execute my pitches,” said Freeland, who’s scheduled to make his third start of the season Tuesday night against Philadelphia at Coors Field.
