Rockies Aiming to Add Veteran Starting Pitchers for 2026
The Colorado Rockies are expected to pursue veteran starting pitching ahead of the 2026 season, according to Thomas Harding of MLB.com. The club is reportedly looking to add two experienced starters who can provide innings stability. Colorado's rotation struggled mightily in 2025, finishing with a 6.65 ERA, which is one of the worst marks by a starting staff in MLB history. As things currently stand, the Rockies have Kyle Freeland, Chase Dollander, Tanner Gordon, Ryan Feltner, and McCade Brown projected as their starting five. Feltner posted the best ERA among that group at 4.75, though he logged just 30 1/3 innings. It is unlikely that Colorado will pursue top-tier free-agent starters such as Framber Valdez, Ranger Suarez, or Zac Gallen. Instead, Darragh McDonald of MLB.com suggests the Rockies could target older veterans like Wade Miley, Miles Mikolas, Alex Cobb, Jose Quintana, Patrick Corbin, or Martin Perez. Unless Colorado changes its usual offseason approach, their rotation is probably best avoided for fantasy in 2026.
