With Spring Training underway, that can only mean that the latest baseball video games will soon be out. There are none better than the 2K Sports series, and MLB 2K11 will be out on March 8. But if you want a sneak preview of what the Colorado Rockies roster looks like, PastaPadre has a preview for them and most other teams.
The top-rated players for the Colorado Rockies are Carlos Gonzalez (95) and Troy Tulowitzki (93). Ubaldo Jimenez comes in third-overall and the highest-rated pitcher with a 92 overall. After that, closer Huston Street has an 80 rating, and the rest of the roster comes in with 70-ratings and three 60-ratings.
Note that individual batter and pitcher stats are not yet available, so we'll need to do a bit of guessing on why CarGo is rated slightly higher than Tulo.
And is Ubaldo Jimenez short-changed a bit here? His 92 certainly puts him among the top pitchers, but the Phillies have Roy Halladay (97), Cliff Lee (95) and Roy Oswalt (91). The Cardinals' Adam Wainwright checks in with a 96 overall rating. Josh Johnson of the Marlins is a 92 like Jimenez. Zack Greinke of the Brewers is a 91, as is CC Sabathia of the Yankees.
Upon further review, Jimenez is around the correct rating.
