    • The state of the Colorado Rockies farm system, February 2024
    Photo by Justin Edmonds/Getty Images After revealing the Top 30 PuRPs over the past few weeks, what does the system look like as a whole? In the process of writing about every player who received votes in our biannual Purple Row Prospects (PuRPs) list — this edition it was 57 players across 23 ballots — I learned a bit about trends and system strengths and weaknesses. So for anyone who mis...2024

    • Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 1, Adael Amador
    Photo by AAron Ontiveroz/The Denver Post The 20-year-old switch-hitting shortstop repeats as the top-overall PuRP 1. Adael Amador (686 points, 23 ballots) To many (but not all), Amador is the clear-best prospect in the system and a fitting repeat number one Purple Row Prospect. Amador’s breakout in 2022 might not have been quite as celebrated as former top prospect Ezequiel Tovar’s, but th...2024

    • Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 2, Chase Dollander
    Photo by Eakin Howard/Getty Images The Rockies’ 2023 top pick has yet to make his pro debut, but has a lot of upside and could move through the system quickly 2. Chase Dollander (640 points, 23 ballots) Entering the 2023 college season, scouts were split among whether Dollander or Paul Skenes was the top pitching prospect in the draft, with many giving the edge to Dollander after a year in...2024

    • Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 3, Zac Veen
    Photo by AAron Ontiveroz/The Denver Post The outfielder has had an injury-marred few years, but a 2024 debut could still be within reach after wrist surgery 3. Zac Veen (626 points, 23 ballots) There are some ifs with Veen’s profile to get to the star ceiling that was promised when the 22-year-old lefty-swinging, righty-throwing corner outfielder was made the ninth-overall pick in the 2020...2024

    • Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 4, Yanquiel Fernandez
    Photo by Alika Jenner/Getty Images The 21-year-old Cuban outfielder represented the Rockies in the 2023 MLB Futures Game 4. Yanquiel Fernandez (605 points, 23 ballots) The ball just sounds different coming off Fernandez’s bat. The 21-year-old lefty outfielder (who signed for $295k in 2019 out of Cuba) is well-known for making loud contact, and did a lot of that in 2022 with Low-A Fresno as...2024

Sterlin Thompson (584 points, 23 ballots) Fair or not, Thompson’s progress will be judged in part by Rockies fans by the fact his draft pick (31st overall in 2022) was the only compensation Colorado received for Trevor Story leav...2024
