Sebastian Walcott Headlines Ranger Prospects Headed to Arizona Fall League
Sebastian Walcott will participate in the Arizona Fall League (AFL), one of eight players from the organization that will head to the desert. Walcott has played all season at Double-A, and at only 19 years old, he's performed admirably. The Rangers' top-ranked prospect is hitting .251 on the year, but is currently riding an eight-game hit streak and is 23-for-65 (.354) over his last 17 games. A 12.9 percent walk rate has helped him to a .353 OBP, and he's hit 13 home runs along with 32 stolen bases. The 6-foot-4 slugger should be stashed away in dynasty formats. He'll be joined by Emiliano Teodo, the 2023 AFL Reliever of the Year, who looked like he would be a slam-dunk closer for the team back then, but has had a poor season overall, which has been marred by injury, an 8.00 ERA, and almost as many walks (28) as strikeouts (31) in 27 innings pitched. So, there are some things for him to work on there, and the Rangers can see if he will be a part of their plan for the future.
