2013

2012

Coleman got knocked around for most of the year as a spot starter. His peripherals weren't as bad as the results (75 strikeouts in 84.1 IP, 1.35 GB/FB rate), but with control problems (46 walks) and a fastball that averages less than 90 mph, he profiles as a back-end starter at best. Entering spring training, his opportunity to break camp as a starter may hinge entirely on the other personnel the Cubs have at their disposal coming Opening Day.

2011

Coleman pitched passably as a rookie last year, keeping the ball on the ground and in the park. But his 27:25 K:BB ratio in 57 innings pitched makes him an innings-eating back-end starter at best, assuming he manages to secure the last slot in the team's rotation.
