Rockies slugging prospect Condon caps career year with Triple-A homer (of course!)

55 minutes ago

Charlie Condon heated up throughout the summer in his second full season as a professional and slugged his way around the highest level of the Minors. 

MLB’s No. 55 prospect closed out his campaign in typical style -- with his 27th homer of the season in Triple-A Albuquerque's 14-7 loss to Salt Lake at Isotopes Park.

Condon teed off on a 79 mph changeup for a three-run homer at the expense of Major League veteran Sam Aldegheri (Angels) in the bottom of the third inning. It was the 23-year-old's second dinger in the final four games of the season.

The Rockies’ No. 3 prospect finished the year having played over 100 games for the first time in his career. Condon slashed .273/.390/.514 over 130 contests for a .904 OPS. Colorado was looking for a full season of development from the 2024 third overall pick and he delivered.

Condon hit two homers in four games in March, and that was just for starters. He unlocked a serious stretch of power with a 10-homer June that included two mutihomer outings, and then added another one on July 1. That hot stretch earned him Pacific Coast League Player of the Week honors to close out June. The 23-year-old represented Colorado with the National League in the All-Star Futures Game, earning the starting nod at first base.

Although Condon struck out at a 25 percent clip, he improved his ability to get aboard with 79 walks and a .390 on-base percentage. He further enhanced his lineup presence as a proven run producer with 98 RBIs.

Condon spent the entire year at the top level of the Minors after making stops at the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League, High-A Spokane and Double-A Hartford in 2025. He just missed the 100-game mark last season due to a left wrist fracture that delayed the opening of his campaign to mid-May.

The Georgia product's next stop could very well be Coors Field.
