Chase Dollander Likely To Begin In Triple-A
Colorado Rockies pitching prospect Chase Dollander struck out seven in 3 2/3 scoreless innings in a 3-1 win over the division-rival San Francisco Giants in Cactus League action on Tuesday night, but the ninth overall pick out of Tennessee in 2023 hasn't gone without ups and downs in spring training. He allowed five runs and needed 50 pitches in 1 2/3 innings on March 8 against the Athletics. Colorado views the 23-year-old as a potential future ace, but The Denver Post's Patrick Saunders writes that he's likely to open the year at Triple-A Albuquerque. As it stands now, the Rockies are expected to open the year with a four-man rotation of Kyle Freeland, Ryan Feltner, German Marquez and Antonio Senzatela. Dollander, the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, will make his MLB debut in 2025, but it could depend on the health and performance of the veterans already in the rotation.
