A meeting with the D-backs; Baker listed
The Rockies and D-backs meet today at Tucson Electric Park in what turns out to be a matchup of pitching prospects. Not wanting the D-backs to see No. 1 starter Aaron Cook, the Rockies will use their top mound prospect, righty Jhoulys Chacin. The D-backs also are going with a prospect, Cesar Valdez.
Cook is pitching in a 1 p.m. Minor League game at the Hi Corbett Field complex.
Interesting roster note: Infielder Jeff Baker, who has been limited to two games this spring because of an elbow issue, is on the Rockies’ travel roster. I’ll update if more information becomes available.
Here is the lineup:
Dexter Fowler CF
Clint Barmes SS
Todd Helton 1B
Ian Stewart 3B
Brad Hawpe RF
Carlos Gonzalez LF
Omar Quintanilla 2B
Paul Phillips C
Jhoulys Chacin P
