Colorado Rockies: Three prospects who could make an impact by 2020

While the Colorado Rockies do not boast a top ten farm system in Major League Baseball, there are still some entertaining and potentially future stars waiting in the wings hoping for a chance to make an impact.

It can tug at the heartstrings to objectively see teams in your division possess a top of the line farm system, as is the case with both the San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Dodgers. Despite the reality of the Colorado Rockies not finding themselves at that level, they still do have some quality bats and arms to stock up in the future.

Almost like clockwork, fans have come to expect a veteran presence with the team, because it has now been that way for a while. Thankfully, Colorado’s brass has seemingly begun to turn the corner in recent years with showing the desire to let the kids play. Seeing both Raimel Tapia and Garrett Hampson get regular at-bats is a significant step in the right direction and one they hopefully continue to explore moving forward.

All that being said, there is still a plethora of talent in the clubs’ minor leagues, with some guys on the verge of knocking on the Show’s door for their opportunity. It is time we look at some of these stars and determine who is close to that next level.
