Outlook Cole Carrigg
Rockies Prospect Cole Carrigg Shines in Triple-A, But Awaits Call-Up
Carrigg has been tearing up Triple-A with a sparkling .335 batting average and jaw-dropping defensive plays. However, he has yet to make his major league debut for the last-place Rockies, who are currently mired in a four-game losing streak. Despite injuries to other Colorado outfielders like Brenton Doyle, Carrigg has not yet been added to the active roster.
Because Carrigg is a rookie without major league experience, our models do not have active big-league projections for him yet. His impressive minor-league numbers suggest he has real staying power once he arrives, but fantasy managers must remain patient. He is a high-priority stash in dynasty leagues but lacks immediate redraft value.
Colorado has six games scheduled this week, featuring matchups at home against the Cubs and on the road against the Athletics. Since Carrigg remains in the minors, he will not provide any fantasy production for your lineup this week. Leave him on your bench or waiver wire for now.

Outlook Kyle Stowers
Kyle Stowers struggles with contact despite secure starting role in Miami
Stowers serves as the primary everyday left fielder for the fourth-place Marlins (31-35), who are currently riding a two-game winning streak. While he recovered from an early-season hamstring strain to secure his active starting role, his recent form has been highly disappointing. Over the last seven days, he has struggled to a .174 batting average with nine strikeouts in 23 at-bats, though he did contribute a home run and four RBIs.
After a breakout 2025 campaign where he hit .288 with 25 home runs, Stowers has experienced severe regression in 2026, batting just .214 through 43 games. Our models project a rest-of-season bounce-back toward a .242 average and 22 total homers, but his high strikeout rate over the last month suggests his current slump is earned. Fantasy managers should expect a low average floor until he corrects his swing-and-miss issues.
The Marlins play a six-game slate, starting at home against Arizona before heading to Pittsburgh. He faces vulnerable starters like Zac Gallen (5.74 ERA) and Ryne Nelson (4.76 ERA) early in the week, but faces a tough weekend stretch against Braxton Ashcraft (3.28 ERA) and Paul Skenes (3.21 ERA). Given his ongoing contact struggles and difficult weekend matchups, our weekly verdict is to sit him in standard formats.
