143. Seiji Sakaguchi

A pillar of New Japan Pro wrestling in and out of the ring for decades, Seiji Sakaguchi is one of the unsung heroes of the successful Japanese promotion.
Pedro Astacio was known a lot for his bloated Earned Run Average and tendency to give up Home Runs (he led the National League in that department twice with the Rockies) but he did rack up a lot of wins and strikeouts.  Astacio was in the top ten is K’s with Colorado and actually had a season where he had a bWAR of 6.0.

22. Steve Reed

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.

25. Eric Young

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.
