Tonight, they will look to take the series from theTexas Rangers.
Starting for the Rangers is Tyler Alexander.
The lefty has a 2.14 ERA in 23.0 IP. He’s struck out 16, walked six, and given up one home run. Alexander has a 1.38 WHIP.
Presumably, Alexander will act as an opener for Kumar Rocker. In 37.1 IP, he has a 4.34 ERA.
Starting for the Rockies in what will be his first start in purple pinstripes is Sammy Peralta, a lefty reliever the Rockies claimed from the Milwaukee Brewers on April 4. His arsenal includes a five-pitch mix, none of which average more than 89 MPH: a slider, a sinker, a changeup, a four-seam fastball, topped off with an occasional sweeper.
In 2026, he has pitched for two Triple-A teams. With the Nashville Sounds, Peralta earned a 27.00 ERA in 1.0 IP. In Albuquerque, Peralta has 19.0 IP with a more-respectable 3.79 ERA.
Presumably, Peralta will be opening for RHP Tanner Gordon, who will pitch most of the game.
Currently, Gordon has an ERA of 5.19 in 21.0 IP primarily in long relief. He’s struck out 25 while giving up five walks and five home runs with a 1.33 WHIP.
