Posted: Wed Mar 19, 2025 12:16 am
As we gear up for the Colorado Rockies' spring training game against the San Francisco Giants, all eyes will be on Chase Dollander and Keaton Winn. With Dollander's shaky 7.79 ERA and a crucial opportunity to secure an Opening Day roster spot, the stakes couldn't be higher. Can he build on his last performance and prove he belongs in the rotation?
On the flip side, we have Keaton Winn, who has yet to allow a run this spring but comes with a checkered past, including a rough season with the Giants. Will he be able to maintain his momentum and make a case for himself as a reliable option?
This matchup raises some intriguing questions:
- What do you think is more important for a pitcher in spring training: the ability to throw scoreless innings or the ability to command the game and work deep into games?
- How do you feel about the Rockies' current pitching depth? Are we seeing the emergence of new talent, or are we just witnessing a temporary flash in the pan?
- With Austin Gomber likely starting the season on the injured list, how critical is it for Dollander to step up? What are your predictions for his performance tonight?
Let’s dive into the discussion! What are your thoughts on the Rockies' pitching situation, and who do you think will ultimately secure a spot in the rotation?
