Charlie Condon News: Set to open season in minors

Condon isn't expected to be included on the Rockies' Opening Day roster, despite a strong spring training, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Condon is hitting .419 with three home runs in 16 Cactus League games, but he doesn't possess a spot on the 40-man roster and played only 55 games at Double-A last season and zero games at Triple-A. Additionally, 25-year-old T.J. Rumfield is having an even better camp, with four home runs, five walks and one strikeout in 14 games, and 28-year-old Troy Johnston is also hitting .333 with a .419 on-base percentage in 15 games. If Condon goes to Triple-A and produces up to his recent standards in the Arizona Fall League (.873 OPS) and in spring training, he'll get the call sometime this summer.
