		<description>I think the long-term goal of the Rockies is to get to 2013 with a starting pitching staff that can eat innings. Ubaldo and Jhoulys are much better than that, obviously, but I wouldn&#039;t count on the Rox signing anyone who would be a block to Christian Friedrich&#039;s arrival (probably in 2012) and Tyler Matzek&#039;s likely call up in 2013. A contract longer than 3 years isn&#039;t going to happen with anyone, period.  

I&#039;m not so sure that other GMs are going to take a risk with DeLaRosa.  He&#039;s a mixed bag with an electric backfoot slider and a head full of self doubt.  Every GM in baseball has got to ask himself, which George would we be getting?  It&#039;s only the wasteful few that will put something together and risk getting nothing in return.  And if the prudent thing is to put together a decent base contract padded with incentives, the Rockies can probably match anyone in baseball and keep DeLaRosa in LoDo, where he&#039;s likely to perform his best.</description>
