Tyler Chatwood enjoyed a successful return to the majors Saturday night, holding the Giants to one run over 5 1/3 innings.

Chatwood has a 2.55 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 12 strikeouts over three starts in the majors. He may just have forced his way into another turn in Colorado's rotation. May 19 - 1:20 AM

Rockies recalled RHP Tyler Chatwood from Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Chatwood will make a spot start on Saturday night against the Giants. He has posted decent numbers this year at the Triple-A level but is not a great fantasy bet.
May 18 - 4:49 PM

Tyler Chatwood will be recalled from Triple-A Colorado to start against the Giants on Saturday.

Originally, Chatwood was expected to be recalled to start on Sunday in place of the injured Jeff Francis. Instead, the Rockies have opted to give Juan Nicasio an extra day of rest and use Chatwood on Saturday. Chatwood has fared decently in his first two starts with the Rockies this season, and has posted a 3.14 ERA and 29/5 K/BB ratio over 28 2/3 innings at Triple-A. He could be worth a look in deeper mixed leagues.
May 17 - 7:09 PM

Tyler Chatwood is expected to be recalled to start Sunday against the Giants in place of the injured Jeff Francis (groin).

Chatwood tossed six shutout innings in his second start with the Rockies late last month, so it's not a surprise that he's getting the call. He's also had a great year at Triple-A Colorado Springs, posting a 3.14 ERA and 29/5 K/BB ratio over 28 2/3 innings. The righty could stick around for at least a couple starts.
May 16 - 6:37 PM

Rockies optioned RHP Tyler Chatwood to Triple-A Colorado Springs.

The Rox were considering keeping Chatwood around after he tossed six scoreless innings his last time out, but they'll keep Juan Nicasio in the rotation for now. Jhoulys Chacin returns from the DL to take Chatwood's spot on the roster.
May 5 - 2:03 PM

Tyler Chatwood held the Dodgers scoreless on five hits over six innings in Monday’s 12-2 victory.

Chatwood registered five punchouts and didn’t walk anyone. All five hits the right-hander allowed were singles, and he picked up three singles himself at the plate. Chatwood struggled in his first start last week, but he’s earned himself at least one more outing with tonight’s effort. He can’t be trusted in fantasy leagues, though, especially in his starts at home, which is where he’ll be this weekend against the Rays.
Apr 30 - 1:49 AM

Tyler Chatwood yielded five runs -- four earned -- over six innings Wednesday in a no-decision against the Braves.

Chatwood had some promising numbers this year at Triple-A Colorado Springs but was exposed early and often in his first major league start of the season. He surrendered nine hits and walked three batters, throwing only 55 of his 91 pitches for strikes. The 23-year-old right-hander may get another chance with the Rockies but isn't worth consideration in any fantasy league.
Apr 24 - 7:06 PM

Rockies recalled RHP Tyler Chatwood from Triple-A Colorado Springs.

As expected Chatwood, will take the place of the injured Jhoulys Chacin (back) in the starting rotation. The 23-year-old right-hander was off to a hot start this season with the SkySox, but he can't be trusted in fantasy leagues against the homer-happy Braves.
Apr 24 - 1:20 PM

Tyler Chatwood is expected to be recalled to take the injured Jhoulys Chacin's spot in the rotation on Wednesday.

The Rockies have yet to officially name Chatwood the starter on Wednesday, but they tipped their hand when he was scratched from Monday's outing at Triple-A Colorado Springs. Chatwood boasts a 1.84 ERA in three Triple-A starts but should be avoided in fantasy leagues versus the Braves.
Apr 23 - 6:24 PM

Rockies optioned RHP Tyler Chatwood to Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Chatwood earned the demotion with an ugly spring that saw him post a 6.16 ERA with 13 walks over 16 innings. He'll join the rotation at Colorado Springs.
Mar 24 - 3:49 PM

Tyler Chatwood has left the Arizona Fall League due to fatigue.

Michael Marbry has taken his spot on the Salt River Rafters' roster. Chatwood posted a 4.60 ERA and 1.60 WHIP over 15 2/3 innings before leaving. He should be fine by the time spring training rolls around.

Making his final start of the season, Tyler Chatwood allowed two runs on five hits in four innings of Saturday's loss to the Dodgers.

Chatwood struck out four, walked two and allowed a solo home run to Matt Kemp. Shuttled back and forth between the bullpen and starting rotation, Chatwood got mostly shellacked his first season in Colorado, posting a 5.43 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 41/33 K/BB ratio across 64 2/3 innings. Unsurprisingly, he was particularly brutal at home, turning in a 6.07 ERA in the thin air of Coors Field. Looking to build up innings heading into 2013, the 22-year-old righty will pitch in the Arizona Fall League.

Tyler Chatwood held the Diamondbacks to two runs over 5 2/3 innings Monday in a 4-2 win.

It was his second-longest outing of the season, as Chatwood was allowed to throw 85 pitches. Like all of the other Rockies’ starters, the hard-throwing youngster has struggled this year and is far from a guarantee to begin 2013 in the rotation. He’ll finish off the year against the Dodgers.

Tyler Chatwood pitched solidly in Tuesday's victory over the Dodgers, allowing two runs on five hits over his five frames.

Chatwood walked three and fanned four on the evening. Mark Ellis hit a sacrifice fly to get the Dodgers on the board in the second inning, then they added a run in the fourth on a double play ball, but that was the extent of the damage. Chatwood will head into Monday's start against the Braves in Atlanta with a 4-3 record, 4.81 ERA and 24/18 K/BB ratio through his first 39 1/3 innings.

Tyler Chatwood bested the Brewers Tuesday after allowing two runs (one earned) in six innings.

He struck out three and didn't walk a batter while giving up four hits in improving to 3-2. We're most pleased to see the youngster display pinpoint control, as command has been his Achilles heel to this point. Chatwood has given up only two earned runs in his last four appearances, covering 15 innings. Those outings have caused his ERA to plummet from 8.74 to 4.28. If he's available in your NL-only league, it's time to pounce.
