Love Him Like a Rock

The Colorado Rockies put Jeff Francis in the fold for at least four seasons:

The deal, which has a team option for the 2011 season, will pay Francis $13.25 million.

I like the deal. It's not a lot of money, the Rockies avoid arbitration in the future, and Jeff pitches well at Coors. For his career, his BA, OBA and Slug. allowed are better at home than on the road. Nice move by Colorado to lock up a pitcher who is successful at Coors.

Francis is one of my favorite pitchers; I saw him throw a no-hitter in the minors and love the way he's shown he can pitch at Coors.
