    View Draft Report
    Lambert worked his way into Fresno State's rotation as a sophomore, but didn't really find his footing until his junior season, when he wound up leading the Mountain West Conference in wins while going 10-2, 3.13. The older brother of Rockies 2015 draftee Peter, Lambert is a command pitcher at 6-foot-2, 170 pounds who pops a 94 on occasion with his fastball and throws four pitches for strikes. None plays as plus, but he makes pitches and competes well.
