A former Minor League Player of the Year, Jeff Francis earned his way into to Rockies rotation and would have a three year run where he would post solid Win/Loss records of (14-12, 13-11 and 17-9). That latter year he would finish 9th in Cy Young voting and the Southpaw would also make history that year as the first Canadian to win a game in the post season and pitch in the World Series. Injuries would pile up and he would miss the 2009 season ad he would no longer be the player he once was. He would leave Colorado for Kansas City, though would come back for a second stint in the Mile High City.
