Zac Veen Hits First MLB Long Ball
28 seconds agoColorado Rockies outfield prospect Zac Veen went 1-for-2 with a home run during Game 1 of the doubleheader against the Washington Nationals on Sunday afternoon. Veen would hit his first MLB long ball in the third inning off Washington starting pitcher Jake Irvin. Veen was in contention to make the MLB roster out of camp but fell short in the running. However, he was rewarded with an early promotion and made his MLB debut on April 8. However, the former ninth overall pick has been going through some growing pains in the big leagues as he has posted a modest .118/.189/.235 slash line with just two extra-base hits across his first 11 MLB contests. Last season in the minor leagues, he held an overall .258/.346/.459 line. Fantasy managers should expect the Spruce Creek HS product to continue to see playing time in center and left field.
