Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen continues to impress at the Triple-A level this season, and his latest demonstration is a two-homer game for Albuquerque on July 5. Veen is about as solid as it comes as a minor league hitter for the Rockies. The 24-year-old is hitting .323 with 16 homers and 58 RBI in Albuquerque this season, along with 14 stolen bases. The five-tool product is worth a speculative roster spot on most fantasy rosters, as he could enjoy a great deal of success if promoted to the Rockies and able to play his home games at Coors Field. Veen is the No. 13 prospect on the Rockies' top prospects list, but he is putting up some of the best numbers in the system at the moment. Stashing him now might be the right move for managers to make in preparation for his call-up, as he could provide immense upside once he returns to the majors. Jake McCarthy, Cole Carrigg, and Mickey Moniak are performing well in the outfield now for Colorado, but the prospects of Veen are nonetheless very enticing for the big league club.--Brian Buckey - RotoBaller

Rockies outfielder Cole Carrigg continues to emerge as one of the top waiver wire targets after an outstanding start to his rookie season. The 24-year-old has already launched four home runs while posting a .940 OPS through his first 24 major league games. Carigg has been even better recently, hitting .349 with a .581 slugging percentage over his last 15 contests. The No. 6 prospect in the Rockies organization has also made an impact beyond the batter's box. His 99th percentile arm strength and 92nd percentile sprint speed highlight his all-around skill set. With his confidence growing and production remaining steady, Carigg profiles as a high-upside fantasy addition in all league formats.--Julian Brooke

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (oblique) was pulled off his minor league rehab assignment on Sunday. Doyle was placed on the 10-day Injured List on May 21 due to a left oblique contusion. He was making progress while playing at Triple-A Albuquerque before aggravating his injury on Saturday. The Rockies have pulled Doyle off his rehab assignment and will further evaluate him in Denver. It doesn't sound like Doyle is going to be ready to return before the All-Star break. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for more updates on his status. He could be a mixed league option once he's cleared to play again.--Andy Webb

Colorado Rockies outfielder Jake McCarthy stayed red-hot at the plate as the Rockies' table-setter in Friday night's 15-3 rout over the division-rival San Francisco Giants at Coors Field, going 4-for-5 at the plate with two home runs, six RBI, and a stolen base to raise his season average to .308 and his OPS to .868. McCarthy is having a career year in 2026 in his first year in Denver, and he now has a strong .308/.346/.522 slash line with nine long balls, 47 RBI, 36 runs scored, and 14 stolen bases in his 269 plate appearances. The 28-year-old former first-rounder by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 2018 MLB draft out of the University of Virginia is mostly intriguing as a waiver-wire pickup for his speed 97 steals in his five-plus years in the majors, but he's also contributing a high average and has already reached a new career high in home runs in 74 games. McCarthy led off the game on Friday against San Fran with a homer and also added a grand slam in a statement game that will have fantasy managers heading to the waiver wire on Saturday to add him. He's currently rostered in 44% of Yahoo leagues.--Keith Hernandez

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (groin, oblique) missed several days during his minor-league rehab assignment with the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes due to tightness in his left groin, but he was expected to be back in the lineup on Friday night, according to Thomas Harding of MLB.com. The 28-year-old power/speed threat initially was placed on the 10-day injured list by the Rockies in late May with a left-oblique contusion. Now that he's back in action on the farm, Doyle could be reinstated from the IL and rejoin the big-league roster at some point next week before the All-Star break. Doyle broke out in 2024 in his second full season in the majors with 23 home runs, 72 RBI, 30 stolen bases, and a .260/.317/.446 slash line in 149 games, but he has struggled to get anywhere near that level ever since. Through 43 games (122 plate appearances) this year before landing on the IL, Doyle was hitting just .207 (23-for-111) with a homer, four RBI, nine steals, and a 32.8% strikeout rate. With regular playing time no longer guaranteed, Doyle is rostered in only 31% of Yahoo leagues.--Keith Hernandez

Colorado Rockies outfielder Mickey Moniak has been a late bloomer after the Philadelphia Phillies took him first overall in the 2016 MLB draft. The 28-year-old left-handed-hitting outfielder finally broke out in 2025 in his sixth year in the league and first with the Rockies, hitting .270/.306/.518 with an .824 OPS, 24 home runs, 68 RBI, 62 runs, and nine stolen bases. He was following it up this year by hitting .280/.335/.607 with a .942 OPS, 12 homers, 28 RBI, and 21 runs in his first 43 games through May 21 before an injury landed him on the injured list. Since returning on June 22, Moniak has gone 9-for-32 (.281) with three homers, two doubles, a triple, nine RBI, and seven runs in 10 games played. More recently, he has six hits in his last nine plate appearances with two homers, two doubles, a triple, five RBI, and five runs scored. Moniak came a single shy of the cycle on Wednesday against the Miami Marlins and went 3-for-5 with his 15th homer of the year to finish a triple shy of the cycle on Thursday in the series finale. The power is real at hitter-friendly Coors Field, but beneath the hood, rough times could be coming. Moniak has a .233 xBA, a .326 xwOBA (.353 current wOBA), a chase rate in the third percentile, and a hard-hit rate in just the 55th percentile. Additionally, he's batting only .182 (6-for-33) with two of his homers against lefties and .219 (16-for-73) with three of his 15 homers away from Coors Field.--Keith Hernandez

Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Charlie Condon has put together a dominant stretch at the plate and is quickly approaching his MLB debut. Since May 30 (his last 27 games of action), the former Georgia standout has launched 14 long balls while posting a stellar .376/.488/.941 line with a 1.428 OPS. Prior to this impressive stretch at the dish, the slugger posted a much lower .250/.380/.426 line over his first 46 games of action at the Triple-A level. Currently, the Rockies do not have a clear path for at-bats for Condon, with Mickey Moniak recently returning from the injured list and prospect Cole Carrigg earning the call. However, given Condon's current performance at the dish, a Rockies team that is in the midst of a rebuild could look to give their top hitting prospect a long look in the majors. Entering the All-Star break, Condon possesses elite stash upside among hitting prospects.--Andy Smith

Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen turned in a stellar showing over the past month at Triple-A Albuquerque and is now firmly on the stash radar ahead of Week 15 of the fantasy baseball season. Over 24 games in June, the former ninth overall selection from the 2020 MLB Draft posted a stellar .366/.385/.782 line with 13 doubles, four triples, seven home runs, and three stolen bases. Over this 24-game stretch, Veen only went hitless in one of them. Overall, the young outfielder has produced at a high level with the top club of the minor leagues, carrying a sharp .317/.397/.577 line with .974 OPS, 22 doubles, 14 home runs, and 14 stolen bases. Even though Veen stumbled in his first taste of the majors, the 24-year-old could carry five-category potential once he returns to Colorado for his second stint, making him a prime stash target in five-outfielder leagues.--Andy Smith

Colorado Rockies first base/outfield prospect Charlie Condon is forcing his way into the promotion conversation. The 23-year-old ripped two home runs and a triple for Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday, giving him five homers over his last three games. Condon is now slashing .293/.418/.612 with 20 home runs, 59 RBI, 71 runs, and five steals across 273 at-bats. He has also walked 49 times, so the recent power binge is not the result of an all-or-nothing approach. Colorado has not announced a call-up, but RotoBaller ranks Condon third among its current redraft prospect stashes and projects a July arrival. Yahoo managers have pushed his roster rate to 7%, leaving him available in most leagues despite the growing buzz. Condon is a priority stash in 15-team formats and should be considered in shallower leagues with an NA spot. The uncertain timeline keeps him from being a universal must-add.--Bruno Mulé

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (groin, oblique) was scheduled to play a full minor-league rehab game in center field for Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday, but he was scratched from the lineup before first pitch due to groin tightness, according to MLB.com. Doyle has been on the 10-day injured list since May 21 with a left-oblique contusion. The 28-year-old former fourth-round pick in 2019 out of Shepherd University was nearing a return to the big-league roster in early July, but it's now unclear if he'll have a shot to rejoin the Rockies before the mid-July All-Star break. In four rehab games before being scratched on Tuesday, Doyle was 4-for-16 at the plate. It's unclear when Doyle will be ready to return to game action, but it's yet another setback for a declining player that won't be guaranteed regular playing time in Colorado when he's reinstated from the IL. Before his oblique injury, Doyle was slashing just .207/.279/.270 with a homer, four RBI, 21 runs, nine stolen bases, and a 32.8% strikeout rate in 43 games played. He's now only rostered in 31% of Yahoo leagues.--Keith Hernandez

Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen has steadily been hitting all year long at Triple-A Albuquerque in the Pacific Coast League. In 270 at-bats, Veen is hitting a whopping .330 with 13 homers and 54 RBI to go with 14 steals. The No. 9 overall pick in the 2020 MLB Draft, Veen is pushing hard for a promotion to Colorado, but the outfield is stocked at the big-league level with the likes of Jake McCarthy, Cole Carrigg, and Mickey Moniak. Veen, who bats left-handed and throws right-handed, would be an excellent option for the big-league club to add a lefty-swinging outfielder. Now is the time to add Veen to fantasy rosters. His Triple-A numbers, while in a good hitting environment, are too good to ignore, and a chance to play half his games at hitter-friendly Coors Field is too good to pass up. Veen has the prospect pedigree, and now might be the time when the production comes.--Brian Buckey - RotoBaller

Since being promoted to the big leagues on June 9, Colorado Rockies outfielder Cole Carrigg is hitting .245/.369/.491 with three home runs, 11 RBI, 11 runs scored, and one stolen base. With Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (oblique) on the injured list, Carrigg has emerged as the team's primary center fielder. The 24-year-old has demonstrated an advanced plate approach, logging a 15.4% walk rate while striking out in just 21.5% of his plate appearances. Carrigg also has some untapped speed upside, as he stole 46 bases across 123 games at Double-A in 2025 and 30 bases in just 57 games at Triple-A this season before getting the call from the Rockies. Carrigg's 7.5% barrel rate and 35% hard-hit rate in a small sample size are underwhelming, but the hitter-friendly environment of Coors Field should help him maximize his batted balls. Given his speed and balanced profile at the plate, Carrigg profiles as a priority waiver wire target.--Will Brady

Across 275 plate appearances in 2026, Colorado Rockies utility man Willi Castro is hitting .280/.353/.407 with six home runs, 33 RBI, 36 runs scored, and six stolen bases. The 29-year-old has been on a tear in June, hitting .316 with four home runs and 14 RBI across 93 plate appearances this month. With just a 5.6% barrel rate, Castro does not profile as a significant power source for fantasy managers. Still, the veteran switch-hitter has a balanced profile at the plate that allows him to provide modest production across the other four categories. Castro also offers multi-positional eligibility, and his hitter-friendly home park in Colorado helps boost his abilities at the plate. In deeper league formats, Castro should be a priority waiver wire target for fantasy managers due to his versatility.--Will Brady

Colorado Rockies outfielder Mickey Moniak missed a month after being placed on the injured list with ankle tendinitis in late May. However, the 28-year-old was reinstated by Colorado on Monday and has jumped back into a big-side platoon role for the Rockies. Moniak has been highly productive so far this season, hitting .275/.328/.581 with 12 home runs, 29 RBI, 22 runs scored, and one stolen base across 174 plate appearances. The 28-year-old owns a 12.7% barrel rate in 2026, and he's mashed right-handed pitchers to a .976 OPS. Moniak's playing time ceiling is limited by his platoon role, which holds down his fantasy value. Still, Moniak profiles as a valuable power source when he's in the lineup, and his favorable home park in Colorado helps boost his overall numbers. Fantasy managers in need of power should target Moniak on the waiver wire.--Will Brady
