The Rockies optioned Veen to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old seemed like a solid bet to be starting in the outfield Opening Day for the Rockies after Nolan Jones was traded to the Guardians, but the organization will instead send him back to Albuquerque to begin the campaign. Veen had a .757 OPS in 21 games in his first taste of the Triple-A level last year, and he may not have to wait long before making his big-league debut in 2025. Nick Martini appears set to open the year as Colorado's primary left fielder after having his contract selected Sunday.
