Brian Rike, OF Just Missing: Chaz Roe, RHP; Seth Smith, OF; Pedro Strop, RHP 1. Franklin Morales, LHP DOB: 1/24/86 Height/Weight: 6-0/170 Bats/Throws: L/L Acquired: NDFA, 2002, Venezuela 2007 Stats: 3.48 ERA at Double-A (95.2-77-45-77); 3.71 ERA at Triple-A (17-20-13-16); 3.43 ERA at MLB (39.1-34-14-26) Year In Review: The system's top pitcher got off to a slow start, but a second- half surge got him into the majors, where he made a number of impressive starts before faltering in the postseason. The Good: Few players at any level can match Morales' power arsenal from the left side. His fastball sits at 92-96 mph and has touched 99 in the past, and his curveball is a plus-plus knee buckler when it's on. He's a good athlete who fields his position well, and he earns raves from team officials for his professionalism. The Bad: Morales' numbers aren't as dominant as his stuff. He overthrows at times, and is still coming around to the fact that 94 mph with command and sink is a better pitch than 98 and wild. His changeup varies between slightly below to slightly above average; more consistency with it, as well as better control, could allow for a breakthrough. Fun Fact: In five big-league starts away from Coors Field, Morales had a 2.05 ERA while limiting hitters to a .209 average. Perfect World Projection: An upper-echelon big-league starter. Timetable: The Rockies have Morales penciled in for a rotation job in 2008, but he'll need to earn it with a strong showing in spring training. -- 沒有BP帳號，只能看到Morales 此外，Stewart只剩3顆星了... --
