The Colorado Rockies have placed Christian Friedrich on the D.L.
The Rockies have placed 25-year old lefty starting pitcher Christian Friedrich on the 15-day disabled list due to a stress fracture in his lower back. He pitched in 16 games (all starts) for the Rockies this year and he was 5-8 with a 6.17 ERA and a 1.56 WHIP. Friedrich has given up 102 hits (14 homers) and he has also walked 30 batters in only 84 2/3 innings so far this year while whiffing 74 batters. He is likely done for the season.
