Ryan Feltner To Open Season As No. 5 Starter
2 years agoColorado Rockies right-hander Ryan Feltner will open the 2023 season as the team's No. 5 starter. The 26-year-old's first outing of the regular season is scheduled for Monday, April 4, on the road against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Feltner went 4-9 with a 5.83 ERA in 20 games (19 starts) as a rookie for the Rockies last year. He'll be hoping to be better than he was in his final Cactus League start on Monday, when he allowed two home runs and walked four in 4 1/3 innings. The key for him will be moving the ball around the zone and not becoming predictable on the mound. Feltner finished spring action with an ugly 9.92 ERA, 2.20 WHIP, 10 walks and 10 strikeouts in 16 1/3 innings. Needless to say, fantasy managers should avoid him as a streamer against LA on Monday.
