Cole Carrigg (SS/OF - COL)
8/24/26 11:01 AM - Zen And The Art Of Fantasy Baseball: The Extraordinary Nature Of Glue. If you’re looking for a future power source (you know, the “wow” stats), Cole Carrigg probably isn’t your guy. But he is quietly providing pretty much everything else. Carrigg is quite an athlete – back in my day (when dinosaurs roamed the earth and we walked uphill to school both ways), similar players would be referred to as “toolsy.” He can run, he can hit, he can sneak in some power due as much to his bat speed and launch angle as anything related to his exit velocity, and he can play the field. He also has a cannon for an arm.
