Outlook Ryan Feltner
Feltner finds recent rhythm but faces uphill battle in Coors Field
Feltner has been surprisingly effective lately, posting a 2.25 ERA and a 1.08 WHIP over his last 12 innings of work. He has secured two wins during this span for a fifth-place Rockies squad that currently sits at 33-51 and is looking for rotation stability. His role as a back-end starter is secure, especially with rotation mates Jose Quintana and Tanner Gordon sidelined by injuries, allowing him to settle in after his own early-season triceps issues.
While his 3.34 ERA over the last 30 days is a significant improvement, our models suggest a regression toward his 5.25 projected ERA is likely. His current 1.28 WHIP is better than his career norms, but a low strikeout rate of 6.10 K/9 provides a dangerously thin margin for error when pitching in high-altitude environments. Historically, his ratios have struggled to stay below 4.50, and his recent success appears to be a favorable streak rather than a permanent breakthrough.
The Rockies host a full week of games at home, facing the Marlins followed by a series against the Giants. While Feltner is coming off a productive stretch, the upcoming schedule features tough opposing arms like Sandy Alcantara and Logan Webb, who both carry respectable sub-4.10 ERAs. Given the volatility of pitching in Colorado and the high probability of his ratios normalizing soon, fantasy managers should look for safer streaming options with higher strikeout upside. Sit.

Outlook Mike Paredes
Paredes moves into the rotation and looks like a prime streaming option against the Rockies.
Mike Paredes has transitioned into a starting role for the Twins, who are currently 38-41 and third in the AL Central on a two-game win streak. With key starting pitchers like Bailey Ober and Pablo Lopez on the injured list, Paredes has stepped up in a depleted rotation. Over his last 14 days, he has posted a solid 3.69 ERA and 1.31 WHIP across 12.2 innings.
While his recent stretch is promising, his career 4.35 ERA and 1.29 WHIP over 18.6 big-league innings suggest some regression could be on the horizon. Our models expect a bit of base-runner traffic given his low career strikeout rate of 5.32 K/9. Still, his ability to limit damage keeps him viable as a deep-league option.
Paredes is scheduled for a single home start on June 27 against the Rockies. He faces Michael Lorenzen, who has struggled mightily with a 7.38 ERA and 1.90 WHIP. Given this favorable matchup against a weak opponent, our models project a strong 2.83 ERA this week. Verdict: Stream.
