Drew Pomeranz threw five scoreless innings in his debut with the Rockies on Sept. 11, a home win over the Reds.
He struggled in only one of his appearances, allowing seven runs in two innings at Houston.
"I didn't really have my curveball," Pomeranz said. "My changeup was all right. I didn't have my best fastball. Surely, I learned a lot from the pitching side of it, having to go out there and pitch when I didn't have my best stuff.
"Last year is the first year that I had a ball that was running a little bit and cutting. I was still throwing a lot of fastballs, but they weren't straight. That helped me out."

The Red Sox are doubtful to make a play for Hanley Ramirez following Saturday's trade of Marco Scutaro, according to multiple sources.
Boston originally dealt Ramirez, then a prospect, to the Marlins in a blockbuster trade for Josh Beckett.

The money the Red Sox saved by trading Marco Scutaro to the Rockies on Saturday will likely be used to court free agent Roy Oswalt.
Oswalt's price has dropped since the beginning of the offseason, when his agent was said to be looking for a three-year deal.
Boston, with Carl Crawford's recent wrist surgery, could also use another outfielder and Cody Ross would be an ideal fit.
