Chase Dollander to Begin Season in Bullpen
Colorado Rockies pitcher Chase Dollander will begin the 2026 season pitching out of the bullpen, according to manager Warren Schaeffer. Dollander was competing for the final spot in the rotation with Ryan Feltner during camp. The 24-year-old didn't make the starting rotation after posting a 6.43 ERA, 1.79 WHIP, with seven walks across 14 innings of work this spring. Last season, Dollander registered a 6.52 ERA, 1.55 WHIP, and an 82:49 K/BB ratio across 21 starts with Colorado. It doesn't appear that the former first-round pick has made many improvements over the offseason. The Rockies will give Dollander a chance to prove himself out of the bullpen to start the season. There is unlikely to be much fantasy value here with Dollander probably pitching in a long relief or swingman type of role.
