Spilborghs Leads Rockies Charge with Two Homers
Ryan Spilborghs went 4-for-5 with two homers, a double, a walk and four runs scored as the Rockies’ leadoff hitter on Friday. Spilborghs got the start in center tonight, as the Rockies are still hesitant to sit Brad Hawpe versus lefties. Hawpe ended up 0-for-5. Spilborghs should be playing against every southpaw, but it doesn’t need to happen at Willy Taveras’ expense. Taveras is at least as good of a hitter as Hawpe versus lefties, and Colorado’s defense is a whole lot better with him in center. (Rotoworld)
