Pitching

Rockies Starting Rotation

Tyler Anderson   7-9/4.55/176.0/164 K

Jon Gray   12-9/5.12/172.1 IP/183 K

Kyle Freeland   17-7/2.85/202.1 IP/173 K

Antonio Senzatela   6-6/4.38/90.1 IP/69 K

German Marquez   14-11/3.77/196.0 IP/230 K

The Rockies rotation has gotten better as the season has went on. Tyler Anderson has shown progress with his 3.25 ERA in the month of September. Jon Gray has pitched inconsistently all year. Kyle Freeland showed he embraces the big moment after giving up only one run in the Wild Card game. Antonio Sentazela has done better late in the season, also owning a 3.25 ERA in the month of September. And German Marquez has been dominant and has been a strikeout machine.

Key Bullpen Pieces

CP: Wade Davis   1-0/10 SV/0.60/15.0 IP/22 K in last 15 games

SU: Adam Ottavino   6-4/6 SV/2.43/77.2 IP/112 K

MR: Seunghwan Oh   1-0/1 SV/3.09/25.2 IP/29 K in last 15 games

The Rockies bullpen has been good this season. The Brewers have been good against Davis, but he is still someone to focus on. Adam Ottavino has been nasty all year. And Seunghwan Oh is a guy that could pitch some big innings in the playoffs. The whole bullpen may not look good on paper, but they will get outs when needed.
