Jimmy Herget to Open for Rockies on Thursday in San Diego
Colorado Rockies right-hander Jimmy Herget is scheduled to serve as the team's opener for Thursday's series opener at Petco Park against the division-rival San Diego Padres, according to the team. Herget is likely to only pitch an inning or two on Thursday, so he won't be a recommended fantasy streamer in any format. Right-hander Chase Dollander figures to see the bulk of the innings in this one after Herget leaves the game. The 32-year-old Herget will hope to keep up the strong work early in the 2026 season, as he's allowed just an earned run on four hits while walking none and striking out six with a save in six innings out of the bullpen. Dollander, 24, comes into Thursday's contest with a 5.40 ERA and 1.44 WHIP with 11 punchouts and three walks in 8 1/3 frames over two relief appearances. Neither Herget nor Dollander will be popular streaming options for fantasy managers against a Padres team that is starting to swing the bats better.
