Alex White aims to bring major returns to Rockies

Posted Sep 2, 2011
Alex White plans to demonstrate the talents that led the Rockies to insist upon him as one of the three pitchers they received from the Indians for their erstwhile ace pitcher, Ubaldo Jimenez. White, the Indians' first-round pick in the 2009 MLB First-Year Player Draft out of North Carolina, stormed to the big leagues with the Indians in late April but suffered a middle finger sprain in his third start.
