Rockies' Zac Veen: Awarded 40-man spot
The Colorado Rockies selected Zac Veen to their 40-man roster Tuesday.Veen began 2024 with Double-A Hartford but received a promotion to Triple-A Albuquerque in late August, where he slashed .220/.281/.476 with six homers and 15 RBI over 92 plate appearances. He will most likely return to Albuquerque to begin the 2025 campaign, though a hot start in the minors could allow him to quickly join a Rockies lineup that posted just a .639 OPS away from the hitter-friendly confines of Coors Field last season.

Rockies' Zac Veen: Could play winter ball
Colorado Rockies director of player development Chris Forbes said in an interview on MLB Network Radio on Thursday that Zac Veen (hand) could play winter ball this offseason, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.Veen was limited to just 202 plate appearances this season with Double-A Hartford before undergoing surgery last month to repair tearing and fraying to a ligament in his left hand.
