Dodgers starting pitchers try to tame Coors Field beast

An overriding theme for the Dodgers in 2016 is how their pitching staff will perform aside from ace Clayton Kershaw. The non-Kershaw starters will get the toughest of tests this weekend against the Rockies in the nightmare that is Coors Field.

Dodgers starters have a 2.81 ERA so far this season, including 3.41 in 12 starts by the non-Kershaws.

In nine starts in Coors Field in 2015, Dodgers pitchers had just one quality start, by Kershaw, and the starters put up a collective 7.16 ERA while averaging just 4.89 innings per start.
