Aaron Cook, RHP, starter

Cook has a decent sinking fastball, and attempts to use it Brandon Webb style, over 80% of the time. He will continue to bore it low and in to RHs and sink it away from LHs. Cook has a slider that he'll change velocities with. He'll mix it in anywhere between the low-upper 80s. Cook also uses a slow curveball. Cook will rarely use his changeup, and may not show it in a given start. 5/16/08 CSJ *fastball(89-94), slider(81-89), curve(77-78), change(83-87)

Brian Fuentes, LHP, closer
	Fuentes is a fastball/changeup pitcher with a strange low-angle delivery. He has a good 90mph fastball, and a very slow changeup in the 70s. He will mix in sweeping sliders, usually to LHs. 5/16/08 CSJ *fastball(89-93), changeup(71-75), slider(75-80)

Jorge de la Rosa, LHP, starter
	Jorge, from Monterrey, Mexico, throws the standard four pitches. His fastball looks good, especially coming from the left side. He mixes in slow curves, a sharper slider, and a splitter. His repertoire looks decent, but he has yet to produce anything at the major league level. 5/16/08 CSJ *fastball(88-92), splitter(78-84), slider(82-85), curve(69-73)

Matt Herges, RHP, reliever
	Herges has worked his way back from the scrap heap to find a spot in the Rockies' bullpen. He still throws the same pitches he always has. That includes an average moving fastball, a big 12-6 curve, and a sinking changeup. His stuff is underwhelming, but he's decent enough to stick around in 2008. 5/16/08 CSJ *fastball(88-90), curve(73-78), changeup(80-82)

Taylor Buchholz, RHP, reliever
	Buchholz throws a simple repertoire. He has a moving fastball, a hard curve, and a sinking changeup. Now that he has found a role as a setup man, he knows he can bring his best stuff for short stints, and it has improved his performance. 5/16/08 CSJ *fastball(92-95), curve(80-83), changeup

Greg Reynolds, RHP, starter
	A #2 overall draftpick out of Stanford, Reynolds holds large expectations, but looks a little short on stuff. He deals a sinking fastball in the low-90s that he moves in and out. His breaking ball is a 'spiked' curve, and he floats in a sinking changeup to LHs. His minor and major league numbers do not point to stardom either. 6/23/08 CSJ *fastball(86-93), curve(77-82), changeup(80-84)

Jason Grilli, RHP, reliever
	Jason Grilli, nicknamed "Cheese Man" by Gene Lamont, has a good arm but hasn't produced much at the major league level yet. He was the 4th overall pick in 1997 after a dominant career at Seton Hall. Grilli throws a hard low-90s fastball and a slider that gets a lot of break. He'll also mix in a sinking changeup to LHs. 6/23/08 CSJ *fastball(90-93), slider(82-85), changeup(83-85)

Manny Corpas, RHP, reliever
	Corpas throws a moving fastball and a slider. He has a free and easy motion that allows his fastball to get good sink and tail. Manny will vary his slider velocities and tilt. Since he doesn't throw a changeup, Corpas will often backdoor it to LHs. 6/23/08 CSJ *fastball(91-93), slider(79-82)

Jeff Francis, LHP, starter

Francis is doing more 'pitching' now. He doesn't bring 90mph with every pitch anymore, but he can on occasion. He usually throws around 85mph, trying to get his fastball to sink. His changeup has become his best pitch and he seems to spot it well. His breaking ball is a sweeping curve in the low-70s. He does not throw a slider, but when he pulls his changeup to his glove side, it can resemble one. Francis had a meteoric rise through the minor leagues after being drafted in the first round of 2002, but hasn't quite been able to dominate the major leagues in the same fashion. I believe he has lost much of his old Canadian velocity. 6/23/08 CSJ *fastball(83-91), changeup(78-80), curve(69-73)

Ubaldo Jimenez, RHP, starter

Jimenez has electric stuff. He has a hard, moving, upper 90's heater, a big-breaking power curve which can touch the low 80's (particularly early in the game) and a sinking mid-80's change-up that he doesn't use nearly enough. Jimenez' fourth pitch is a slider that usually sits around the mid-80s. Jimenez doesn't always seem to know where the ball is going and gives up quite a few 4-pitch walks. Has a good pitcher's frame, but has had injury problems (broken shoulder blade) in the past. Stuff seems to drop off noticeably after 50 pitches. Looks like a potential back-end of the bullpen guy if he can iron out the control issues. 7/20/07 - Brett Gilliland *fastball(90-98), curve(74-81), slider(83-87), changeup(83-86)

Luis Vizcaino, RHP, reliever
	Vizcaino throws a lot of junk. He uses tons of sliders away to RH and likes to pound his splitter low and away to LH. Vizcaino's splitter is routinely thrown in the upper-80s, and may look more like a changeup than a split. It may even look like a sinking fastball at 88mph. 7/30/08 CSJ *fastball(91-93), slider(82-85), splitter(88-89)

Ryan Speier, RHP, reliever
	Ryan Speier has the same repertoire as Justin. He throws a fastball, slider, and splitter. They even throw from the same 3/4 arm angle. Ryan's slider can be flat at times, hanging when thrown to his arm side. His off-speed pitch is a splitter that can get some strange movement towards home plate. 7/30/08 CSJ *fastball(89-92), slider(81-83), changeup(81-83)

Livan Hernandez, RHP, starter

Livan has regressed to a low-80s fastball and slurvy breaking pitches. He starts with his fastball, a pitch that gets some sink and tail, but is very hittable. Then Livan will flip up multiple sliders in the 70s and a curveball that he varies considerably. The curve can be anywhere between 60-71mph. Livan's fourth pitch is a changeup that he'll show to LHs. He gives up tons of hits but can pitch deep into ballgames when going well. 7/1/08 CSJ *fastball(82-87), slider(76-78), curve(61-71), changeup(73)

Alberto Arias, RHP, reliever
	Alberto Arias throws a moving 90mph fastball and a hard breaking curve. I have not seen an off-speed pitch from Arias. 5/16/08 CSJ *fastball(91-94), curve(80-83)
