Summary
Chase Dollander, 24-year-old right-hander for the Colorado Rockies, was placed on the 15-day injured list on May 15, 2026, after exiting Thursday's game against Pittsburgh in the second inning with right arm tightness. MRI confirmed a minor UCL sprain with inflammation around the ligament. Dollander avoided a major injury that would have required Tommy John surgery. Prior to injury, he posted a 3.89 ERA with 47 strikeouts in 10 starts (3-3 record) over 44 innings. The 2023 first-round pick (9th overall) from University of Tennessee is expected to be the Rockies' future ace.
