Saturday Rockpile: Francis' shoulder iffy, but Helton progressing nicely
The Rockies seemed to have a bad news/good news cycle over the last 24 hours, with word from Jack Etkin that Jeff Francis is behind other pitchers due to the shoulder problems that flared up last season, meanwhile as jrockies posted in a Fanshot, Troy Renck reports that Todd Helton is taking...
Thursday Rockpile: More on Podsednik and other invites
Jack Etkin breaks down the Rockies recent non-roster invitees, with particular emphasis on Scott Podsednik, who seems the most likely outside of Glendon Rusch to see significant playing time with the MLB club.
