Currently last in the National League West, they hold a 24-75 record, with only 12 wins at home, which has been brutal to watch. The problem with that is that many of their top prospects have had a chance at the MLB level already, and in many cases, it came too soon. Bringing a prospect up too soon can really stunt their development if done incorrectly, as many players need quite a bit of time to adjust to Triple-A before even discussing the Major Leagues.

4/09/25 | Prospect News: Feel The Peña Everyone or Take Zac Veen. At the risk of overstating the reality, I’m happy to see the Zac Veen era is underway in Colorado. My bold predictions article says he’ll steal 40 bases this season, so that’s pretty much a lock at this point. Or perhaps he’ll be back in the minors a month from now.
