De La Rosa looks good vs. Pirates: It looked dicey early for him, but Rockies SP Jorge De La Rosa got through a rough first inning to strike out seven batters in six innings Saturday against the Pirates. He gave up a run in the first and faced seven batters but settled down, scattering four hits over his last five innings of work. He gave up seven hits and two walks total. "He pitched a good, efficient ballgame for him," manager Clint Hurdle said. "A problematic first inning, but he was able to navigate through it with one run, which was big for us at the time."

Fantasy Analysis
De La Rosa pitched surprisingly well Saturday, considering he entered with a 7.26 ERA. He has decent stuff, and it shows sometimes, but he remains too inconsistent to even consider using in mixed leagues. His next start is scheduled for Friday at Cincinnati. (Updated 07/20/2008).
