Best Rockies to wear each uniform number

This browser does not support the video element.

DENVER -- Plenty of players have put up big stats in a Rockies uniform and become synonymous with their jersey numbers, while others have had more modest tenures with the organization.

MLB.com is looking back at the best players to wear each number in franchise history since the 1993 inaugural season. In some cases, players wore multiple numbers in their Rockies careers. To include as many of the notable players as possible, MLB.com is listing the numbers used, and the years they wore that specific number.

0: RHP Adam Ottavino (2013-18)
The extreme movement on Ottavino¡¯s slider made him a highly effective relief pitcher and a fan favorite.

1: INF Jamey Carroll (2006-07)
A versatile leader, Carroll¡¯s sacrifice fly in the 13th inning drove in the winning run in the classic 2007 Game 163 against the Padres.

2: SS Troy Tulowitzki (2007-15)
For much of his time in Purple Pinstripes, Tulowitzki was on the short list of best players at his position in the sport.

3: OF Michael Cuddyer (2012-14)
A key free-agent signee and leader on young teams, Cuddyer won a batting title with the Rockies.

4: SS Juan Uribe (2001-03)
Uribe flashed his range and arm during the early stages of a career that would take him to several playoff teams.

5: OF Matt Holliday (2004-08), OF Carlos Gonz¨¢lez (2009-18)
These All-Stars were swapped in a trade with the Athletics after the 2008 season.

6: OF Corey Dickerson (2013-15)
Dickerson made an immediate impact with the bat.

7: C Joe Girardi (1993-95)

Castilla¡¯s power at third base made him an All-Star and a key cog in a powerful lineup.

Barmes had long runs as a starter at shortstop and second base.

13: MGR Clint Hurdle (2002-03; 2005-09)
Hurdle wore 13 as a player because many believed it to be unlucky. He wore it as coach and manager for all but one year, when he went to 31 to accommodate lefty Jeff Fassero.

14: 1B Andres Galarraga (1993-97)
Galarraga won the National League batting title in the team¡¯s inaugural season, and made two All-Star Games with the club.

31: OF Cory Sullivan (2005-06)

34: RHP Pedro Astacio (1997-2001)
Before the Rockies began storing baseballs in a humidor in 2002, Astacio was an unknown gem whose numbers were obscured by factors that made Coors Field even more offense-oriented than today.

Bettis was one of the team¡¯s most effective starters during his time, and his comeback from testicular cancer made him unforgettable.

36: PC Bob Apodaca (2002-13)
