Description

Chase Dollander quickly became a darling of baseball fans around the country looking for the next great young pitcher thanks to an outstanding month of April. His first start of the year produced seven scoreless innings on the road against the New York Mets. Yet, reliever Brennan Bernardino opened Saturday's contest with Atlanta. How'd he fare? Is Colorado doing more damage by not letting Dollander start the game?

Walt Weiss managed the Rockies for four years and built the foundation for consecutive postseason clubs in 2017-18. How was his first return to Denver as a big league manager in decade turn out?

Plus, why Mickey Moniak can't be found amongst the NL leaders on offense, the numbers behind Atlanta's staggering dominance over Colorado and an ABS loophole that doesn't need to be closed.
