The Colorado Rockies place Brian Lawrence on the DL
The Rockies have placed Brian Lawrence on the 15-day DL as he is almost fully recovered from shoulder surgery. Lawrence will start the season in the minors but he will be the first pitcher called up when the Rockies need help in the starting rotation. Look for him to pitch well for the Rockies when he comes up to the bigs because he’s really good at keeping the ball down in the strike zone.
