Steve Reed may have what would be called journeyman career in baseball, but he is arguably the most successful Middle Relief Pitcher in the history of the Colorado Rockies.  Reed would lead the National League in Games Pitched in 1994 and over his career he would appear in 461 Games for Colorado.  He was chosen in the Expansion Draft and arguably Colorado has been trying to duplicate his type since.

Eric Young was an original member of the Colorado Rockies and to this day is still the team’s all-time leader in Stolen Bases.  Young would lead the National League in Triples in 1995 and Stolen Bases in 1996 and was an Al- Star and Silver Slugger in the latter year.  Overall, he had 180 SB with 626 Hits and a .296 Batting Average.

The career of Venezuelan Pitcher, Jhoulys Chacin has been riddled with inconsistency but he was with Colorado long enough in his first run (124 Games from 2009 to 2014) and had enough decent starts to earn this rank.  Chacin would actually twice finish in the top ten in bWAR for Pitchers, including a 5th place finish in 2013.  Chacin returned in 2021, but in the role of Releif Pitcher.

A three-time All-Star with the Rockies, Brian Fuentes would find his niche when he became the team’s closer in 2005.  He would have three seasons where he would have over 30 Saves and would have 115 in total for the team.  As of this writing, he is definitely the best closer in franchise history.  

He signed with the Angels in 2009 and had his best season with an American League leading 48 Saves.
