Matt Belisle has been outstanding this year for the Colorado Rockies
30-year old righty reliever Matt Belisle is having a career year for the Rockies. He has pitched in 53 games (0 starts) for the Rockies so far this year and he is 5-4 with 1 save, a 2.34 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP. Belisle has whiffed 73 batters while giving up only 60 hits and walking 13 batters in 69 1/3 innings pitched. Belisle’s pitching has to be a huge surprise to the Rockies’ front office. In his previous six years in the majors, Belisle pitched in 156 games (43 starts) in which he was 19-23 with 1 save, a 5.10 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP. The Rockies hope Belisle finishes this season strongly because they need all hands on the deck if they are going to make it back to the playoffs in 2010.
