Chad Bettis (SP, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Use in NL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 0% of Fleaflicker leagues

ANALYSIS: There's a reason why Bettis is owned in 0% of Fleaflicker leagues. He pitches for the Colorado Rockies, the place where pitchers often strain their neck from how often they turn to look at another ball soaring into the Mile High stands. Although, Bettis' neck felt fine after his last start at Coors Field, when he threw seven innings of one run ball in a win against the San Diego Padres, I would recommend spot-starting him on the road. But based on his first start of the year (a poor outing on the road) it's anyone's guess where Bettis will feel most comfortable this season. He's tallied 10 strikeouts in two starts and could very well emerge as the Rockies top pitcher in 2016. He certainly has the offense to back him up. Hello Trevor Story.
