• Rockies' Cole Carrigg: Over 50 steals at High-A

  09/10/2024 • By RotoWire

  Carrigg is slashing .280/.358/.475 with 16 home runs, 51 steals and a 19 percent strikeout rate in 111 games for High-A Spokane. A switch-hitting, high-energy player with exciting tools, Carrigg has yet to be tested with a challenging assignment, but he's excelled at every stop since getting drafted with the 65th overall pick in 2023. At the time he was drafted, it seemed he could end up at any of the three premium up-the-middle positions. This year, Carrig made 92 starts in center field and 13 starts at shortstop, with his time behind the dish seemingly a thing of the past. He has done more damage in the hitter-friendly park in Spokane (.903 OPS) than on the road (.797 OPS), but his eight road homers and .465 road slugging percentage are still encouraging marks given that power was the main question with Carrigg coming into the year.
