Newsbreakers

November 21, 2009

According to Patrick Newman's NPB Tracker, former Colorado hurler Jose Contreras is considering pitching in Japan next season.

Our View:

Apparently Contreras has contacted the Hanshin Tigers and will be visiting Japan next week. He's entering his 16-year-old son in an exchange program, but will likely reach out to some pro clubs while overseas. The 37-year-old finished last season with a 4.92 ERA and 1.47 WHIP in his 23 starts, so he likely won't be fantasy relevant even if he stays stateside.

September 19, 2009

MLB.com reports that Jose Contreras (strained quad) threw a simulated game on Saturday and is close to returning to the Rockies.

Our View:

Contreras performed well in the simulated game and mobility drills, much to the surprise and delight of manager Jim Tracy. He is a candidate to start on Thursday against the Padres if Aaron Cook can't go. Or the Rockies could elect to piggyback both pitchers in a combo start. Stay tuned.

September 10, 2009

MLB.com reports that Jose Contreras left Thursday's game with a strained right quad.

Our View:

Contreras injured the quad while running out a groundball in the bottom of the third inning. He wasn't working all that efficiently before leaving, having thrown 66 pitches and allowing seven baserunners during his time on the mound. Consider him day to day for now.

September 5, 2009

Jose Contreras only allowed one earned run on eight hits over 6.2 innings in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Diamondbacks at Coors Field. He had one walk with five strikeouts.

Our View:

Contreras had a strong debut with the Rockies, but it is too soon to say he is benefiting from a move to the NL. He looked good at times with the White Sox this season too.

September 1, 2009

The Denver Post reports that Jose Contreras will make his Rockies debut on Saturday against the Diamondbacks.

Our View:

The Rockies are hoping that a move to the National League will help Contreras right the ship this season. It's worked for pitchers in the past, but don't count on him for fantasy purposes as you may be severely disappointed. Even against a weak lineup like Arizona's.
