Cole Carrigg Launches Second Career Home Run, Entering Must-Roster Status?
Colorado Rockies outfielder Cole Carrigg hit his second career home run and logged three RBI in his team's 6-4 loss to the Athletics on Friday. The 24-year-old has gotten off to a hot start since making his MLB debut on Tuesday, hitting .267/.313/.800 with two home runs, four RBI, and two runs scored across 16 plate appearances. Carrigg also demonstrated elite speed at Triple-A before being promoted, hitting .338/.414/.529 with six home runs, 42 RBI, 55 runs scored, and 30 stolen bases across 257 plate appearances. With Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (oblique) currently on the 10-day injured list and yet to resume baseball activities, Carrigg should have an extended run of everyday playing time in center field with the Rockies. Particularly given his hitter-friendly home environment in Colorado, Carrigg could emerge as a valuable source of power and speed for fantasy managers and should be a priority target on the waiver wire.
