The Colorado Rockies has six prospects in ITD’s Top 100 but only one of them will be heading to Arlington, Texas to take part in the 2024 Futures Game. The lone representative will be Chase Dollander. The other names in the Top 100 are Adael Amador, Yanquiel Fernandez, Jordan Beck, Zac Veen, and Sterlin Thompson. Don’t rule out the possibility of one of those five being named to the team especially with the recent James Wood call up the National League Futures team may need a replacement and Fernandez or Veen may be an option.
