In the process of writing about every player who received votes in our biannual Purple Row Prospects (PuRPs) list — this edition it was 69 players across 28 ballots — I learned a bit about trends and system strengths and weaknesses. So for anyone who missed a few write-ups or even who has a more casual relationship with the farm system, I wanted to synthesize some of those thoughts into a bigger picture than any individual prospect. With Colorado’s penchant for building their big-league roster from within, the players on this list are likely going to play a big role in the next 5-7 Colorado Rockies teams.
