Ryan Feltner wouldn’t take back getting drilled in the head.
The Rockies’ right-hander suffered a skull fracture when he was hit by a line drive on May 13, 2023. The incident put him out for nearly the rest of the season, save for a couple of September starts.
“I was probably going to have a good enough year in ’23, because I felt pretty good with my stuff, but I wasn’t yet where I thought I could be,” Feltner said. “I’m still not. That injury definitely gave me time to get much closer toward where I want to get now and in the future.
