Zac Veen Called Up, Batting Seventh In MLB Debut
1 week agoThe Colorado Rockies officially announced on Tuesday that they recalled outfield prospect Zac Veen from Triple-A Albuquerque after optioning outfielder Jordan Beck to Albuquerque on Monday. Veen is starting in right field and batting seventh in his major-league debut on Tuesday against Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta at Coors Field. The 23-year-old is considered the Rockies' No. 8 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and he should receive regular playing time in the outfield, making him worth a look off the waiver wire in deep-mixed fantasy leagues. The former first-rounder (ninth overall) in 2020 looked good in spring training and went 12-for-31 with a homer and eight RBI in his first eight games with Albuquerque before his call-up. Veen will have a tough first big-league matchup against the veteran Peralta.
