Christian Friedrich, a former first-round draft choice, and promising young pitcher Edwar Cabrera were added to the Rockies’ 40-man roster today.
Friedrich, 24, experienced a disappointing season at Double-A Tulsa, going 6-10 with a 5.00 ERA. However, he remained healthy and didn’t miss a start until prescribed rest at season’s end. Cabrera, 24, moved onto the...

If there was ever a more apparent mismatch between professional athlete and organization than Milton Bradley and the Colorado Rockies, I can't think of it.
