Getting your player ready...
If you missed the fun and challenge of building desktop Rockies from past playoff runs, you’re in luck. It’s time to grab your scissors and tape. There’s a new kid on the desktop block: Ubaldo Jimenez.
The Rockies have never had a pitcher like Ubaldo. In fact, big-league baseball rarely witnesses the type of season Jimenez is putting together. He is conjuring memories of 1968, “The Year of the Pitcher,” when the Cardinals’ Bob Gibson posted a ridiculous 1.12 ERA and the Tigers’ Denny McLain won 31 games.
With his 99-mph fastball, a baffling changeup and a killer splitter, Jimenez is the favorite to win the National League Cy Young Award. And now, he can be your desktop companion. Go to and download your own desktop Ubaldo.
