29. Kyle Freeland — Colorado Rockies
Rick Scuteri-USA TODAY Sports
Kyle Freeland’s career has been full of ups and downs. As a rookie in 2017, Freeland won 11 games and finished seventh in the National League Rookie of the Year vote. The following season, Freeland put together arguably the greatest season for a pitcher in franchise history — 17-7, 2.85 ERA, fourth-place in the Cy Young vote. For the past five years, Freeland has had a combined 4.96 ERA and is 27-47 overall. The lefty had some good moments in ’23, but there is no guarantee he will finish the year as the team’s ace. Cal Quantrill, Dakota Hudson and Austin Gomber are candidates to take the lead role for the Rockies.
