The Book on Jhoulys Chacin

Prospect Info


COLJhoulys Chacin
Born 1/7/1988
RHP, COL

A rail-thin flamethrower from Venezuela, Chacin is on the fast track in Colorado, especially as some of the other Rockie options have slid from their earlier grace. His 94mph fastball has good location and late movement, and his curve and change show plus promise. He seems to have the character and work ethic to be a frontline starter, but he could be adapted to the bullpen as well. Either way, he's a good 2010 option for the Rockies right now.
