The Colorado Rockies rookie makes a strong statement in his first MLB start

The Colorado Rockies made the call to the minor leagues and pulled up Chase Dollander. Dollander is a former Tennessee Volunteers ace and starting pitcher of two seasons. The talented pitcher was drafted 7th overall two drafts ago and has been dominating the minors since.

Nothing changed on Sunday as he was credited with the Rockies second win of the season. Dollander finished the game with six strikeouts in five innings. He is expected to continue to be a starter from here on out after a great start and shwoing signs of what could be an amazing future in the black and purple.
