Chase Dollander Fantasy Stats

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chase Dollander has looked sharp in his second MLB season, emerging as a very intriguing rotation option for fantasy baseball managers. Dollander was roughed up as a rookie last year, but he's 3-2 with a 3.14 xERA, 10.13 K/9, and 2.89 BB/9 through eight appearances in 2026. Those numbers would be even better if not for a six-run outburst at home in his last outing on May 2. He has also managed to induce a career-high 51.5% ground ball rate despite making three of his eight appearances at the hitter-friendly Coors Field. Dollander is definitely benefiting from being in his second MLB season, but we might also attribute some of the credit to his role and usage. The Rockies have been deploying him after an opener, so typically, he doesn't face the top of the order his first time through. It's a small sample size, but he has allowed a staggering .385 BA to opposing No. 2 hitters, so perhaps using him after the opener is a wise decision. He currently ranks #65 among starters in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings, but he's rostered in just 33% of leagues. He'll return to the mound for his next outing on Friday afternoon in Philadelphia.

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chase Dollander will be looking to bounce back from a rough outing when he makes his next appearance for the Rockies, likely on Friday. He has been working behind an opener most of the season, and he was on a great run before giving up six runs in 5 1/3 innings to the Braves last Saturday. The 24-year-old top prospect had been excellent in his previous seven games, posting a 1.29 ERA and 1.78 FIP with a 0.89 WHIP over 28 innings. He has 42 strikeouts in 37 1/3 innings this season, and he has an elite ceiling if he can continue to realize his potential. Like many young pitchers, the 24-year-old is a volatile option from game to game, but he's shown a high enough ceiling to be a nice pickup if you need help in the rotation. He carries risk when making a home start at Coors Field, but has shown a high enough ceiling that is worth picking up in all 12-team leagues.

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chase Dollander struggled in his first taste of big-league action in 2025, recording a 6.52 ERA across 98 innings (21 starts). However, the former top prospect appears to be putting things together in his second MLB campaign. Across his first six appearances (25 innings) of 2025, Dollander is 2-2 with a 2.88 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 32 strikeouts. The Rockies have largely utilized Dollander in a bulk-relief role, allowing him to follow an opener. The new strategy is working for the 24-year-old, as he owns an elite 24% K-BB rate. Trusting Rockies' pitchers in their home starts at Coors Field is always risky for fantasy managers. However, Dollander's production and his prospect pedigree give him clear appeal as a matchup-based streamer to target off the waiver wire.

Colorado Rockies right-hander Chase Dollander should be attracting some interest on the waiver wire in deeper fantasy baseball leagues after yet another strong showing on Tuesday night in a bulk-relief role in a 1-0 loss to the San Diego Padres at Coors Field. Dollander took the loss but was extremely sharp, allowing just one earned run on three hits while walking one and striking out nine in six innings of work. The 24-year-old former ninth overall pick in 2023 out of Tennessee now sports a nice 2.88 ERA (3.34 FIP) and 1.00 WHIP with 32 strikeouts and only seven walks in 25 innings pitched across his six appearances in 2026 in just his second year in the big leagues. All six of Dollander's outings have come out of the bullpen as the bulk reliever. Since allowing three home runs in his first outing of the year, he's posted a 1.71 ERA and 0.86 WHIP with 27 K's and five walks in 21 innings. At the very least, fantasy managers will want to consider Dollander a great matchup-based streamer for his next scheduled outing this weekend against the struggling Mets offense.

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.

Colorado Rockies right-hander Chase Dollander made his MLB debut much earlier than expected in 2025 and struggled to a 2-12 record, 6.52 ERA, and 1.55 WHIP while striking out 82 and walking 49 in 98 innings over his 21 starts. He was better on the road away from hitter-friendly Coors Field, though, posting a 3.40 ERA in 10 away starts compared to a 9.98 ERA in 11 home starts. The 24-year-old heads into his second big-league season with a detailed plan to fix the direction of his motion. "I was a little bit more cross-body -- I was pulling off everything," Dollander said. After making tweaks this offseason, Dollander's fastball and slider are in the zone more, and he's getting more vertical break on his heater. The former Tennessee star could become more intriguing if his tweaks lead to results, but his 18.6% strikeout rate and 11.1% walk rate were not encouraging in 2025.

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chase Dollander (knee) is expected to go on the injured list and miss the remainder of the season, reports Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post. This is after Dollander reported knee soreness after Monday's start and underwent an MRI on Tuesday. The exact injury diagnosis isn't yet clear, but it's enough to bring his rookie season to a close. The 23-year-old struggled in his first taste of the majors, posting a 6.52 ERA and 1.55 WHIP with 82 strikeouts and 49 walks in 98 innings. Pitching in Coors Field will always be a struggle, but the former top prospect should get the chance to take a step forward in his sophomore year.

The Colorado Rockies announced on Monday that they have recalled right-handed pitching prospect Chase Dollander from Triple-A Albuquerque and have designated catcher Austin Nola for assignment in a corresponding move. Dollander will be making his 16th start of the yar for the Rockis in Monday's series opener at Busch Stadium against the hosting St. Louis Cardinals. The 23-year-old had a ruke awakening in the big leagues earlier this year, as he recorded a 6.68 ERA (5.96 FIP) and 1.56 WHIP with 52 strikeouts and 33 walks in 68 2/3 innings over 15 starts before the Rockies sent him to the minors. He wasn't any better in three starts on the farm after being sent down in July, posting an 8.74 ERA and 1.85 WHIP in three starts. The matchup against St. Louis isn't a terrible one for his return, but we wouldn't recommend rolling with the young hurler in his first start back.

According to Thomas Harding, Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chase Dollander is expected to be recalled to start against the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday. Dollander was optioned to the minors after a few brutal starts in Colorado. He currently holds a 6.68 ERA across 15 starts with the Rockies this season. The Rockies season is obviously a loss at this point, so they might as well give their 23-year-old prospect a chance to pitch. He's not worth a look in fantasy leagues until he can put together a few decent outings in the MLB.

Colorado Rockies right-hander Chase Dollander was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday following a rocky stretch at the big-league level. Dollander has struggled mightily in his debut season, posting a 6.68 ERA and 1.56 WHIP, walking batters at an alarming 10.7% clip. Once viewed as a potential ace-in-the-making, Dollander has failed to find consistency. The Rockies hope a little more seasoning will help him refine his command and rebuild his confidence. In a corresponding move, right-hander Bradley Blalock was recalled from Triple-A and will take Dollander's place in the rotation. Blalock and his 12.94 ERA should be avoided in all formats. Fantasy managers in dynasty leagues should remain patient with Dollander, but redraft owners can safely move on for now.
