Rockies Call Up No. 2 Prospect Condon from Hot Triple-A Streak

DENVER — The Colorado Rockies promoted their No. 2 prospect Charlie Condon from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday, injecting fresh power into a lineup eyeing a National League wildcard push. MLB's No. 64 overall prospect, Condon has dominated early in the Pacific Coast League, slashing .325/.438/.675 with four home runs, nine RBIs and 13 hits in 40 at-bats. His call-up mirrors past successes, like Ryan McMahon's 2017 promotion when the third-ranked prospect led Triple-A in hits with 152 and hit .354 overall.

Condon and fellow top prospect Cole Carrigg, the Rockies' No. 6 ranked player and a 2023 second-round pick, lit up Southwest University Park on Sunday in Albuquerque's 19-12 extra-inning thriller over El Paso. Condon went 3-for-5 with his fourth homer — a 413-foot, 101 mph blast off Padres lefty Miguel Cienfuegos — while switch-hitting shortstop Carrigg notched a season-high three hits, including his first Triple-A homer at 110.1 mph exit velocity. Together, they delivered six hits and seven RBIs, nearly cycling in the hitter-friendly Isotopes' park.

At Coors Field, where thin air amplifies offense, Condon's left-handed slugging fits perfectly after impressing Rockies brass in 2026 spring training. The 2024 third overall draft pick has quickly adapted to Triple-A, clobbering his first two homers there by late March and talking mindset with Albuquerque media on March 25. With the Isotopes' 2026 roster loaded with Rockies talent, Condon's promotion signals Denver's faith in homegrown bats to complement veterans amid a tight wildcard race.
