"Seabold, 30, was drafted back in the third-round of the 2017 draft by the Philadelphia Phillies. After a few seasons in their farm system, he was traded with Canadian pitcher Nick Pivetta to the Boston Red Sox during the 2020 season. In both 2021 and 2022, Seabold ranked as the Red Sox's 15th-best prospect, making his debut with the team in 2021."
"Seabold spent the 2024 season with the Samsung Lions in the Korean Baseball Organization, where he had a 3.43 ERA in 160 innings pitched before returning stateside for the 2025 season. Most of his season was spent in Triple-A, where Seabold had a 6.07 ERA and 6.09 FIP in 69.2 innings pitched with the Tampa Bay Rays and Atlanta Braves organizations, but he did get a look in the big leagues."
"Over three outings with the Rays, Seabold had a 1.35 ERA and 2.99 FIP in six and two-thirds innings pitched. However, he struggled in his four outings with the Braves, giving up four earned runs in just three and two-thirds innings. The right-handed pitcher has a four-pitch mix. More than half the pitches he threw in the big leagues in 2025 was his four-seam fastball, which averaged just 92.4 mph. Another 26% of the pitches he threw was his best pitch, Seabold's changeup."
