Chase Dollander Placed on 15-Day Injured List
Chase Dollander was placed on the 15-day IL with forearm tightness on Thursday, retroactive to May 19. The 23-year-old made his latest start for the team on Sunday, May 18, allowing just one earned run on three hits and two walks while striking out six over 4 2/3 IP, but no issues with his arm were reported at that time. Hopefully this is just a minor issue that will require a minimal IL stint, however, with the Rockies currently being the worst team in baseball, there's no reason to rush back the team's top prospect to risk further injury. Although the righty's 6.28 ERA and 1.42 WHIP don't show it, the youngster pitched better as of late, and his 4.66 xFIP suggests things weren't as bad as they appeared on paper. Assuming this is not a long-term issue, Dollander has a bright future in both real-life and fantasy baseball.
