"Capel spent the 2025 season with the Braves' Triple-A affiliate, hitting .234/.314/.360 with 10 home runs and 21 steals (out of 25 attempts) over 414 plate appearances. These underwhelming numbers kept Capel from receiving a call-up to the majors, even though injuries and suspensions left the Braves short-handed in the outfield for much of the season. Capel is out of minor league options,"
"A fifth-round pick for Cleveland in the 2016 draft, Capel made his big league debut in 2022, and hit .278/.359/.398 over 153 PA with the Cardinals, Athletics, and Reds during the 2022-24 seasons. Despite these decent numbers and Capel's ability to play all three outfield positions, his lack of power kept him from receiving much of a look at the MLB level."
Conner Capel signed a minor-league contract with the Colorado Rockies that does not include a big-league spring training invitation. Capel hit .234/.314/.360 with 10 home runs and 21 steals in 414 plate appearances for the Braves' Triple-A affiliate in 2025 and did not receive a major-league call-up. Capel is out of minor league options, which likely influenced roster decisions. Capel debuted in the majors in 2022 and has shown versatility across all three outfield positions, but limited power has constrained his MLB opportunities. The Rockies project him as organizational outfield depth while prioritizing younger prospects.
