After the Colorado Rockies traded veteran third baseman and former All-Star Ryan McMahon at the deadline, and Orlando Arcia went down with an elbow injury, fans knew something could be afoot. And that something ended up being third baseman Kyle Karros ( pre-season PuRP No. 12) making his MLB debut.

One of the players whom Colorado has to be thrilled about this year is Kyle Karros. A corner infielder selceted in the fifth round of the 2023 MLB Draft out of UCLA, he was a sought after prospect because of the approach he takes at the plate and the pedigree he possesses as the son of Eric Karros, who spent 14 seasons as a Major Leaguer.

Colorado Rockies third baseman Kyle Karros is off to a good start in the National League -- just like his dad. The 23-year-old Karros, the son of 1992 National League Rookie of the Year Eric Karros, hit an RBI single in his first big league plate appearance Friday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
