Zac Veen News
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen (back, hand) was activated off the seven-day injured list on Tuesday and returned to Double-A Hartford after recovering from a lower-back strain. Veen, 22, was supposed to play on Tuesday, but he was scratched before the game due to an illness. On Wednesday, he was in the lineup as the leadoff man while starting in left field for Hartford. While on his rehab assignment, Veen went 4-for-7 with a double and three RBI in three games in the Arizona Complex League, while going 4-for-17 with a double and three RBI in five games for High-A Spokane. The team's No. 5 prospect and No. 83 overall in baseball, per MLB Pipeline, The 22-year-old has hit .320/.409/.550 with a .959 OPS, five homers, 12 RBI and nine steals in 29 games for Hartford this year and is in play to make his major-league debut later this season for the Rockies.

Zac Veen Continues His Rehab Assignment
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen (back) continued his rehab assignment at High-A Spokane on Tuesday, going 1-for-4 with an RBI single and a walk after going 1-for-3 with a pair of walks in his previous game. Veen, the team's No. 6 prospect and the No. 90 prospect in all of baseball per MLB Pipeline, started his rehab assignment with three games in the Arizona Complex League on June 25 after previously working at the team's spring complex in Arizona. In addition to a lower-back strain, a left-hand/thumb injury has slowed Veen's progress. Before his injuries, he was off to a solid start at Double-A Hartford, slashing .326/.418/.568 in 28 games played. There's still a chance that we see Veen make his major-league debut later in the second half of the 2024 season.

Zac Veen Hits Fifth Home Run Of The Season
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen went 4-for-5 at the plate and launched his fifth long ball of the season, and second in as many days, on Thursday. He also swiped his eighth bag of the season. Overall, Veen has a .342/.441/.633 slash line through 23 games at Double-A this season. Veen has been in Double-A for the past three seasons but has finally been able to turn things around. In 2022, he posted a .177/.262/.234 line, and last season, he had a slightly improved .209/.303/.308 line. The former ninth overall pick in the 2020 MLB draft should be promoted to Triple-A fairly soon, which can potentially set him up for a late-season major-league debut.

Zac Veen Heating Up At Double-A
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored, and two stolen bases for Double-A Hartford on Tuesday. It was the 22-year-old's third straight multi-hit game and fourth in his last five. Over that five-game span, the lefty hitter is 10-for-19 (.526) with two doubles, two triples, a home run, five RBI, six runs scored, and two stolen bases. A wrist injury limited the former first-round draft pick to 46 games in 2023, yet he still managed to swipe 22 bags. In 2022 he stole 55 bases in 126 games, and had 36 the year before in 106 games. Veen has yet to see any time at Triple-A but with his hot hitting could see a promotion sooner rather than later. Veen was ranked as the 27th overall prospect in all of baseball last season but has since dropped out of the Top 100. Nevertheless, dynasty managers, especially those in need of speed, should have the speedster on their radar if he wasn't already.

Zac Veen Out For Rest Of Season
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen (wrist) underwent left wrist surgery Thursday and will be out for the rest of the season. It was an up-and-down 2023 season for the 21-year-old. A series of hot and cold streaks culminates in a .209/.303/308 line with two home runs, 24 RBI, 15 runs, and 22 stolen bases in 46 games with Double-A Hartford. However, Veen's agent noted that Veen's wrist injury had impacted his ability to generate power in his swing since the 2022 All-Star break explaining the 2020 first-round pick's recent poor performance. Despite this season-ending injury, he remains a must-roster in dynasty leagues.

Zac Veen Collects Six RBI
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen drove in six runs in a three-hit showing for Double-A Hartford. Since returning from a wrist injury, he is 5-for-12 with three runs and a stolen base. Veen struggled to start the season, with a .160 average and a 22.4% strikeout rate in April. He has since reversed that, going 5-for-12 with three runs, seven RBI, and a stolen base in May. The 2020 first-round pick possesses elite speed, snagging 55 stolen bases in 2022 and seven this season. The 21-year-old will need more seasoning in the minors, so he shouldn't be on the radars of those in redraft leagues.

Rockies Reassign Zac Veen To Minor-League Camp
The Colorado Rockies announced on Tuesday that they reassigned outfielder Zac Veen and catcher Drew Romo to minor-league camp. The Rockies have 44 players remaining in major-league spring training, including 10 non-roster players and one player on the 60-day injured list. The 21-year-old Veen, the team's No. 2 prospect per MLB Pipeline, was never expected to make the Rockies' Opening Day lineup. The ninth overall pick in 2020 was hitting 13-for-48 (.271) with two doubles, a home run, eight RBI, seven runs scored and eight stolen bases in 20 Cactus League games, so he certainly held his own. Veen has a bright future at the next level in a hitter-friendly ballpark, but fantasy managers in redraft leagues can ignore him for now.

Zac Veen Up To Seven Steals On The Spring
Colorado Rockies center fielder Zac Veen has recorded seven stolen bases on the spring in just 23 at-bats. The 2020 first-round pick is participating in his first MLB spring training after splitting the 2022 campaign between the High-A and Double-A levels, stealing a whopping 55 bases alongside 12 home runs in 126 games. The 21-year-old made his pro debut in the 2021 season, hitting 15 homers and stealing 36 bases across 106 games at the Single-A level. The lefty-swinging speedster owns a .261 average with one home run alongside a .798 OPS this spring and will likely begin the 2023 season at Double-A, where he scuffled to a .177 average and .496 OPS across 34 games in 2022. His combination of power and elite speed makes him an intriguing fantasy prospect when he inevitably reaches the big leagues, perhaps as early as next season.

Zac Veen Steals Two More Bases Monday
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen went 1-for-4 with a single, a walk, and two stolen bases in Monday's 3-2 Arizona Fall League win with the Rafters. The 20-year-old has an intriguing power-speed combo, making him the Rockies' top prospect, per the team's MLB.com prospect rankings. Veen made it to Double-A Hartford in 2022 and has gotten off to a nice AFL start, batting .467 with one home run, eight RBI, and 10 stolen bases in nine games. He is a well-known name in fantasy dynasty leagues and may be worth keeping an eye on in the spring of 2023 for fantasy managers in deep re-draft leagues.

Zac Veen Continues To Produce In High-A
Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen went 2-for-3 with a with two runs, three RBI and a solo home run for High-A Spokane on Wednesday. The Rockies first-round pick in 2020, Veen is now hitting .293 with seven doubles, two home runs, 17 RBI and 10 stolen bases over his first 92 at-bats. The young outfielder is known to be aggressive on the basepaths and is always seeking an extra base. At just 20 years old, Veen's body is still maturing and he should be able to add to his power game before all is set and done. The outfielder is likely a couple of years away from contributing in the big leagues, but managers in dynasty leagues should monitor how Veen does throughout the year.
