The Colorado Rockies assigned 30 players to Spokane today for the start of the 2025 Northwest League season, which opens on Friday, April 4th against the Everett AquaSox at Avista Stadium. The roster for the defending champions includes 15 returning players and five of Colorado’s top 30 prospects.

Local standout Stu Flesland III, who pitched at Mt. Spokane High School and the University of Washington, will join a talented pitching staff that also features Rockies No. 14 prospect Jordy Vargas and No. 23 prospect Welinton Herrera.

Returning players on this year's squad include EJ Andrews Jr, Jesus Bugarin, Cade Denton, Konner Eaton, Braxton Hyde, Cole Messina, Skyler Messinger, Jesus Ordonez, Albert Pacheco, Davis Palermo, Andy Perez, Jean Perez, Michael Prosecky, and Felix Ramires.
