Here’s Who The Colorado Rockies Are Sending To The Arizona Fall League

The two open slots

The Colorado Rockies still have two open slots for their Fall League roster, and will likely use them on an outfielder and a pitcher. More below on the pitcher — who is as good as anyone’s guess — but for the outfielder, the likely choice would be David Dahl, the Rockies’ 2013 top draft pick and currently an outfielder in AA with New Britain.

Dahl missed time this year when he had to have his spleen removed after a collision on the field while trying to catch a fly ball. So it’s likely that since he missed about two months’ worth of at-bats, he’s probably due to make up some of that playing time in the AFL.

He’s also not far from Denver; the Colorado Rockies could count on seeing him in the big leagues as soon as the end of 2016, though (barring a huge setback or injury) he’ll surely be in Denver by 2017. So, the AFL would make sense for him right now.
