Colorado Rockies
Antonio Senzatela will be coming off the DL (shoulder) to take on Atlanta.
In his last appearance he put in a quality start, but got the no-decision in a 2-3 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.
He went six innings giving up five hits and one earned run while he struck out five and walked two.
In 47.1 innings of work this season, Senzatela owns a mediocre 7.04 K/9, a decent 3.23 BB/9, an excellent 0.57 HR/9, and a weak 66.3% LOB%.
The end-result is an inflated 4.56 ERA while he owns a more representable 3.69 FIP.

In 132.0 innings of work this season, the ace owns an excellent 10.36 K/9, a slightly high 3.68 BB/9, a solid 0.95 HR/9, and an excellent 79.6% LOB%.
