Sun Jul 20 | 09:40 | Sebastian Walcott Homers, Swipes Two Bags on Saturday |
Texas Rangers infieldprospect Sebastian Walcott went 3-for-4 at the plate on Saturday for Double-A Frisco, including a pair of singles, a home run, two RBI, two runs scored, and two stolen bases. It was his second home run in the last three games, now slashing .244/.341/.392 with 10 home runs and 22 steals through80 games. Although the batting average doesn't show it, the 19-year-old is more than holding his own given his age, striking out at a slightly better than average rate of 21.6 percent and registering a 12.2 percent walk rate to complement the other counting stats. The Bahamian is the game's fourth-ranked prospect overall, and with one of the best power/speed combos, dynasty managers should be stashing the future fantasy impact player away, with a major league debut potentially coming next year. |

Fri Jul 11 | 21:06 | Sebastian Walcott Launches Ninth Home Run in Loss |
Texas Rangers shortstop prospect Sebastian Walcott continues to show why he's one of the top young talents in baseball. The 19-year-old slugged his ninth home run of the season and drove in two runs across six at-bats in a wild 13-12 extra-innings loss to the Amarillo Sod Poodles on Thursday. Walcott's slash line of .238/.338/.381 may not leap off the page, but context matters. The phenom is five years younger than the average player in the Texas League. His elite tools continue to flash as he gains experience against advanced competition. Walcott is expected to spend the season refining his approach before making a serious push toward the majors in 2025. Rebuilding dynasty teams should be targeting him ahead of the trade deadlines. With a true five-tool skill set, Walcott has the potential to anchor fantasy rosters for years to come |

Wed Jun 25 | 14:38 | Sebastian Walcott Swipes Three Bags on Tuesday |
Texas Rangers infield prospect Sebastian Walcott went 2-for-4 on Tuesday and stole three bases for Double-A Frisco. The Rangers' top-ranked prospect (MLB No. 9) started June in an 0-for-11 slump, but is 17-for-60 (.283) in the 16 games since then, although it has come with a .050 ISO. In fact, it has been 21 games since his last home run. Despite the power outage, the 19-year-old has been getting on base via the walk, recording 15 walks compared to only 18 strikeouts during that 21-game stretch. For the season, the young Bahamian is slashing .248/.347/.406 with eight home runs and 15 steals. If he picks it up at the plate, some at-bats at Triple-A later in the year are likely, and a debut in 2026 will put him on the redraft radar. |

Tue Jun 3 | 14:22 | Sebastian Walcott Performing Well at Double-A |
Texas Rangers infield prospect Sebastian Walcott continues to show well at Double-A, going 6-for-16 (.375) with a double, two home runs, five RBI, six runs scored, three stolen bases, and a 3:2 BB:K over his last four games for the Frisco RoughRiders. The Rangers' top-ranked prospect's season-long slash line sits at .249/.341/.449 with eight home runs and 11 steals, and with the uptick in performance, he's pacing for a promotion to Triple-A in the coming months. The 19-year-old has the makings of a five-category fantasy producer and could be in the big leagues in the second half of 2026, so fantasy managers should have a keen interest in the 6-foot-4 slugger's progression. |

Mon May 19 | 23:14 | Sebastian Walcott With Three Home Runs in Last Five Games |
Texas Rangers infield prospect Sebastian Walcott went 1-for-5 on Saturday for Double-A Frisco, with the one hit being his fifth home run of the year. Three of those home runs have come in his last five games, though it hasn't translated to a higher batting average, which now stands at .239 through 36 games. The 6-foot-4 slugger offers a blend of power and speed, recording 10 home runs and 26 steals last season at High-A as an 18-year-old. MLB's ninth-ranked prospect overall has a bright future and expect the batting average to come around as he works toward a promotion to Triple-A by the end of the year. With one of the highest ceilings among prospects, the right-handed slugger is one who dynasty managers should be watching closely, if not already stashing. |

Thu May 15 | 14:57 | Sebastian Walcott Homers In Second Straight Game |
