Rocky Mountain News: Rockies & MLB
"Outfielder Jeff Salazar joins the Rockies today and manager Clint Hurdle said he plans to get Salazar playing time in center field. Salazar hit .265 with nine home runs, 39 RBI and 12 stolen bases at Triple-A Colorado Springs.
'His year won't jump out at you, but he finished strong,' Hurdle said. 'We want to see if he is similar or different from Cory (Sullivan, a left-handed hitter like Salazar).' "
The AVG is nothing special but Salazar does take walks.
If he can continue to do so, he will become one of many 2007 sleeper picks.
(I know. He was one of my 2006 ones!)
