Rockies' Jimenez wants to play winter ball again
Colorado Rockies ace Ubaldo Jimenez wants to play winter ball again in hopes of strengthening his arm to avoid a repeat of the rocky start he had this season.
On Friday, the Rockies announced their 31-game spring schedule, with 15 of those contest at their home park, Hi Corbett Field in Tucson, Ariz. The Rockies will open spring training March 4 with a ``road'' game, even though they won't even leave Tucson, against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
