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.

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

Sullivan’s speed and athletic ability were reasons he is regarded as the best center-field defender in Rockies history.

32: RHP Jason Jennings (2002-06)
