Kyle Karros - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Nine-game hitting streak Karros went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a double Saturday against the Phillies.

Even with that hot stretch, Karros is hitting only .223 with nine RBI across 135 plate appearances on the season. He has been Colorado's primary third baseman all season, though he has been out of the lineup in two of the team's last six games against right-handers.

Hits first homer of season Karros went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Sunday's 9-6 win over the Dodgers.

Impact Karros blasted his first homer of 2026, turning on a Roki Sasaki fastball and sending it 448 feet into the left-field bleachers in the fifth inning. In addition to being his first long ball, it marked the third baseman's first extra-base hit since March 29, when he doubled against the Marlins. With just a .633 OPS through 22 games, Karros will look to build on this performance and find his stride at the plate.

Earns roster spot Karros will begin the 2026 season on the big-league roster, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Impact Karros was the favorite to claim the third base job coming into spring training, and his performance during the exhibition season aligned with those expectations. He collected 15 hits across 39 at-bats -- four of which went for extra bases -- and struck out only in nine times in 41 plate appearances. Karros will presumably draw the majority of starts at third base to begin the season, though his role hasn't been defined.

Favorite at third base Karros remains the favorite to make the Rockies' Opening Day roster as the starting third baseman, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Impact Karros ascended through the minor-league ranks quickly following his selection by the Rockies in the fifth round of the 2023 MLB draft. He made his major-league debut in early August and spent the rest of the 2025 season with Colorado, finishing with a .226/.308/.277 slash line with one home run and nine RBI over 156 plate appearances. Karros hasn't displayed much power at the plate, but his defensive prowess should keep him in the lineup so long as he can make good contact and reduce his chase rate.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Adds strength over offseason Karros entered camp weighing 230 pounds, 20 pounds heavier than he was at the close of the 2025 season, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Impact Karros made his big-league debut at the close of the 2025 season and managed only a .585 OPS with a 26.3 percent strikeout rate across 156 plate appearances. Manager Warren Schaeffer dismissed that sample due to Karros being down about 10 pounds from his typical playing weight, forcing him to play at less than full strength. Karros is among the top candidates to claim the starting third-base job in Colorado to begin the season, and he's collected three hits in his first five plate appearances in Cactus League action.
