“Uncover the Next Fantasy Baseball Gems: Is Jose Soriano the Breakout Star You’ve Been Waiting For?”
Zac Veen – OF, COL: 20% rostered
(SPEED UPSIDE, EVERY DAY PLAYING TIME)
The Rockies called up Zac Veen last Sunday, and since then, he has gone 3-for-19 with six strikeouts and one walk in five games. Your desire to add Veen will be dependent on how much you trust spring training and prospect pedigree. Veen is a former 9th overall pick and top 100 prospect, but he has fallen off all top 100 lists the last two seasons due to some contact issues that led to mediocre minor league performance. However, he had a strong spring and hit .387/.472/.677 in eight games at Triple-A with six strikeouts and four walks, so maybe his plate discipline is improving? He’s just 23 years old, and Coors Field will help some of his batting average risk, but I maybe woulnd’t be spending triple digits here outside of deeper formats because I’m just not sure Veen will make enough contact to stick this season.
