The Book on Christian Friedrich
Prospect Info
Christian Friedrich
Born 7/8/1987
LHP, COL
A smart value-pick from the 2008 draft by the Rockies, Friedrich was one of the two or three best lefthanders in the pool, as well as one of the best prep pitchers available, making him a steal at the 25th overall pick. Christian has four good pitches, including a plus curve that he uses off his 92mph fastball. If his good stuff shows up in Rookie ball, he could jump ahead of the disappointing Franklin Morales in the Rockies "best minor league lefty" category.
