Ryan Waldschmidt Stays Hot, Smacks Two More Home Runs
Ryan Waldschmidt belted a pair of home runs in a 3-for-5 day at the plate on Sunday for Double-A Amarillo, tallying five RBI in the process. The D-backs' top-ranked prospect has been on fire lately, going 15-for-34 (.441) over his last eight games, and has looked plenty comfortable at Double-A since his promotion to that level back in late June. The 22-year-old is slashing .309/.423/.498 with nine home runs, 19 steals, and he has nearly as many walks (45) as he has strikeouts (53) in 66 games for the Sod Poodles. The 31st pick from the 2024 Draft looks like he's well on his way to spending his time at Triple-A in 2026, with a major league debut likely on the horizon as well. If somehow he's flown under the radar in dynasty leagues, the 6-foot-2 slugger should be rostered with a nice blend of power, contact ability, speed, and approach.
