Monday: Mike Bolsinger versus Tyler Chatwood

Tuesday: Julio Urias versus Eddie Butler

Wednesday: Kenta Maeda versus Chris Rusin


Tyler Chatwood looks like the best pitcher the Rockies have, but his peripherals suggest he's pitching above his weight with that 2.99 ERA. His FIP is over 3.8 and his BABIP is .276. Combine that with low strikeout numbers and you've got yourself a regression candidate. In his favor, his ground ball rate is very good, so maybe there's something to it.

Eddie Butler looks like a burning trash according to his stats, so expect him to throw a 9 inning shutout just because.

Chris Rusin has a 7.7% HR/FB rate and he pitches for Colorado. That just doesn't make sense. League average is somewhere around 12%.

Gotta win this series too. A sweep would REALLY turn around the season.

Urias home debut tomorrow. Fun. I'll be there.

You and your love for strikeouts are ridiculous! ground ball outs are just as good! Greinke threw a 9 inning shutout yesterday, I'm sure he could give a shit that he only struck out 2 guys!

7Ks and 1 walk in 4 innings - not bad!
