After struggling as a starter throughout his days in the Colorado Rockies system – including short stints in the big leagues – Christian Friedrich has finally found a home as a relief pitcher in Denver.
Christian Friedrich probably won’t ever get a lot of notice, at least not the way the Colorado Rockies have structured their bullpen to start 2015.
After all, Boone Logan is the big-money, big-arm veteran left-handed pitcher in the bullpen. Rafael Betancourt, John Axford, and LaTroy Hawkins are the wiley old veterans who are teaching the younger relievers how to face hitters.
