9 months agoTexas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford was the fourth pick in the 2023 MLB draft. That, however, may not stop him from starting the 2024 season off in the majors. After being drafted last season, Langford ran through the minor leagues, ending up in Triple-A. Now, the 22-year-old is invited to Spring Training for the defending World Series champions. ATC has a projection of a .267/.347/.471 slash line over 415 plate appearances in 2024 for the former Florida Gator. RotoBaller's Benjamin Chase has Langford ranked as the second prospect in his latest dynasty rankings. In redraft leagues, he ranks as the third-best prospect on RotoBaller. If he can break camp on the major league roster, Langford could be battling teammate Evan Carter, among others, for Rookie of the Year honors. Langford has been on fire this spring, hitting .348 with six home runs, 19 RBI, and 13 runs across 49 at-bats. His ADP is hovering around 91 in March, which puts him at value at his current RotoBaller ranking of 80.
