SPOKANE, Wash. - The Colorado Rockies assigned 30 players to Spokane today for the start of the 2022 Northwest League season, which opens Friday, April 8th at Avista Stadium against the Vancouver Canadians. Spokane’s roster includes 10 returning players from 2021, a pair of highly-touted prospects, and five of Colorado’s top 30 minor league players.

The roster is highlighted by Rockies top prospect Zac Veen, who was the 9th overall selection in the 2020 MLB First-Year Draft out of Spruce Creek High School in Port Orange, Florida. The 20-year-old hit .301 with 15 home runs and 36 stolen bases in 106 games with the Fresno Grizzlies last season and was named Colorado’s MiLB Player of the Year. Veen is considered among the game’s elite outfield prospects, with ESPN (#20), Baseball America (#22), Keith Law of The Athletic (#23), Baseball Prospectus (#25) and MLB Pipeline (#36) all ranking him among their top 50 prospects.

Joining Veen in Spokane will be Fresno teammate and Rockies number two overall prospect Drew Romo. The switch-hitting catcher was drafted 35th overall by Colorado in 2020 out of The Woodlands High School in Woodlands, Texas, and hit .314 with 17 doubles and 23 stolen bases in his debut season last year. The 20-year-old is listed among the game’s top 100 prospects by ESPN (#85) and Keith Law of The Athletic (#97).

Fellow top 30 Colorado prospects on the roster include southpaw Joe Rock (#15), first baseman Grant Lavigne (#22), and infielder Julio Carreras *(#25). Along with Lavigne, other returning players from 2021 include pitchers *Jared Biddy, Fineas Del Bonta-Smith, Will Ethridge, Boby Johnson and Shelby Lackey, while returning hitters include Eddy Diaz, AJ Lewis, Cristopher Navarro, and Daniel Montano.
