Through 44.2 innings this season, he has a 3.22 ERA with a 51:15 K:BB and most of that run damage comes from just two outings. With Jeff Francis hitting the disabled list Friday, the Rockies are planning on bringing up Tyler Chatwood for now, but should he stumble and the Rockies need another arm, Pomeranz should get the call.","date":"Fri May 17"},"fullName":"Drew Pomeranz","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Acquired in the 2011 Ubaldo Jimenez deadline deal, and at the time one of the better pitching prospects in the minors, Pomeranz has seen his growth stunted during his time in the Rockies' organization, perhaps a product of his either having been rushed to the majors or been subjected to the team's experimental four-man rotation last summer. Pomeranz's fastball has played fine in the majors, but his other offerings (change, curve) have been awful: Opponents have .375/.429/.734 career rates against them. Perhaps he needs more seasoning in the minors, but as the Rockies aren't rich in rotation alternatives, he'll be in the mix for a starting spot this spring. NL-only owners can speculate -- matchups potential might be his high-end initial value -- but he has work to do.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Thu Feb 21"}}
